Will these brakes work on my Kaufman trailer? I have 25580 and 02475 bearings

Expert Reply:
The 7,000 pound Kodiak disc brakes, part # K2HR79E, will fit your spindles but we've actually learned from Kodiak that their 7k disc brakes have issues with Kaufman trailers because of the wheels that Kaufman uses. Apparently, those wheels are made so that the center plate that has the mounting holes is welded on the inside of the wheel instead of the outside and it interferes with Kodiak's calipers. Technically, the brakes work on the trailer but you'll need different wheels.
Another option is Dexter brakes, part # K71-694-695-12. They fit the same spindles and we haven't heard of the interference like with the Kodiaks so you won't need different wheels.
