Recommended Timbren Axle-Less System And Electric Trailer Brakes For M416 Trailer
Question:
Hello, I am rebuilding a M416 trailer to pull behind my Jeep. Would like to go with the timbren with electric brakes. My Jeep is a 2000 TJ. What parts do I need for this?

I would be happy to recommend the correct Timbren axle-less system and electric trailer brake setup for the M416 trailer you are rebuilding.
Starting with the Timbren system I recommend the 2000lb system # ASR2KHDS02 which will be plenty highly rated for your trailer and cargo, and is designed for wide tires like what you'd typically find on a M416 trailer like yours.
Since the wheels that are used on the M416 trailer have a 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern, I recommend two of the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-555-35-EZ-K which will work with Timbren kit mentioned, and includes # L68149 inner bearing, # L44649 outer bearing, races, grease seal, grease cap, and lug nuts.
For brake assemblies I recommend the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-35-SA with mounting hardware # BRKH10B.
To take care of the wiring I recommend the Trailer Wiring 7-Way Upgrade Kit w/ Junction Box and RV Style Connector # HS381-9000 which will install to the tongue of the trailer and give you a junction box to make all of the wiring connections. You will need # 10-1-1 to go from the junction box to one wire on each brake assembly using # DW05745-10 for a weather tight connection, and you will ground the other wire on the brake assemblies to the frame of the trailer.
Your 2000 Jeep TJ will need to also have a 7-way connector installed. If you do not have a 7-way connector already installed you will first need a 4-way connector which I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118409 since it will plug into your factory harness.
With a 4-way connector installed you can then install the # ETBC7 which will include all of the components required for adding a 7-way connector, and will allow you to install a trailer brake controller to control your new trailer brakes like the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195.
I included videos for all of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
