Parts Needed To Add Hydraulic EOH Disc Brakes to Boat Trailer with 5,200 lb - 6,000 Lb Axle

Question:

I have a 2002 venture dual axle boat trailer, currently only has single axle surge brakes, looking to convert to 4 wheel disc with electric over hydraulic. it is currently 6 lug, dexter brakes and hubs on the rear. has a 5 bolt flange and pretty sure its the #42 spindle, info tag is worn off trailer. hauls a 30 foot, roughly 7,500lb boat. can you point me in the right direction? will only travel twice a year and stored indoors when not in use. thank you!

The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit part # K2HR526D is just what you need to add disc brakes on a boat trailer with 5,200 lb - 6,000 lb axles. That said, I would also order four of the the following grease seals as your axle could use either and you won't know till you tear apart the hubs, the Double Lip Grease Seal part # GS-2125DL. In order to complete the setup you'll also need the HydraStar Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Kit for Disc Brakes part # HBA16-252-82.

I have attached a few videos I did installing the above parts as well
