Parts Needed to Convert Forest River No Boundaries NB19.5 to Disc Brakes
Question:
Can the drum brakes on a Forest River No Boundaries NB 19.5 be replaced with disc brakes?
asked by: Brownlee F
Helpful Expert Reply:
Yes, you can upgrade the brakes on your Forest River No Boundaries NB 19.5 to disc. I did some checking on your camper and the axle capacity is 5,200 and what looks like a 6 on 5-1/2 inch bolt pattern. So for a Dacromet coated disc brake kit that is confirmed as a fit for your 5,200 lb axles you'd want the # K2HR526D which has the correct wheel bolt pattern as well.
Then for an electric over hydraulic actuator kit to control the brakes with your electric brake controller the kit I recommend is the HydraStar Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Kit for Disc Brakes # HBA16-252-82 as it comes with the best actuator we offer. It's the most reliable and fastest reacting. It also comes with the lines needed and the breakaway kit so you'd be set.
You will need to also make sure your brake controller is compatible with electric over hydraulic brake systems too like the Prodigy P3 part # 90195.
