Solution for Needing Replacement Tekonsha Trailer Brake Magnets
Question:
We have an older horse trailer with 10inch brakes, it has Tekonsha brake magnets, we are trying to find magnets for these brakes, but everywhere we look the magnets seem to be obsolete. What do you recommend?

Expert Reply:
I have a solution that will get your trailer brakes working again but since the Tekonsha magnets are no longer available and there isn't a different brand that will fit in place of them your best option is to go with a new set of assemblies like the part # AKEBRK-35-SA which gives you a left and right assembly for your trailer axle that is self adjusting which means you'll never need to crawl under your trailer to tighten trailer brakes again.
