Parts Needed to Install Electric Brakes On 1995 Coleman Destiny Royale Trailer
Question:
I have a 1995 Coleman Destiny Royale pop up camper. It has brake flanges on the axle 4 hole and the electric brake wiring in place. Im thinking about installing electric brakes on this unit. The current hub is a 5 bolt with 5.30x12 wheels. Im looking at the below parts with the accompanying Right Hand parts as well: 23-47 8-257-5UC3-EZ Are they the right size for that trailer and axle? Are there any measuerments I should take? Anything else that I might need? Thanks in advance.

To make sure that you get the correct parts, I would need to know the inner and outer bearing numbers stamped into the metal of the bearings.
There are different 5 lug bolt patterns. Use the FAQ I have linked to measure for bolt pattern so you can get the correct hub and drum assemblies. If you do not have EZ Lube axles, you will not need EZ lube hub and drum assemblies.
If you do have L44649 inner and outer bearings and the seal has a 1.987 outer diameter and 1.5 inch inner diameter, you can use hub and drum # 8-257-5UC3-EZ for an EZ lube or # 8-257-5UC3 for a regular assembly.
You could then use the 7 inch electric brakes, # 23-47 and # 23-48. For hardware, you would need 8 bolts, # 7-75, 8 nuts, # 6-17, and 8 lockwashers, # 5-8. Since the trailer is already set up for electric brakes you should not need any other parts on the trailer provided the connector has an electric brake circuit.
To activate the electric brakes you will need a brake controller on the towing vehicle and a 7-Way trailer connector. You will start by installing a 4-Way trailer connector if the vehicle does not have one already. The vehicle entered states you have a 2002 Chrysler Town and Country. The 4-Way for it is # 118376.
You will then need to install a 4 and 7 way installation kit # ETBC7. I have included some links that will help with the installation of the 4-Way and ETBC7 installations.
Last, you will need a brake controller. Our most popular model is the Tekonsha P2, # 90885, because it is easy to set up and easy to use. I have included a link to the instructions for it as well.
