Converting to Disc Brakes For Trailer With Bearings 14125A & 25580 w/ 8 on 6-1/2 Bolt Pattern
Question:
Thanks for answering my question, I checked out the product recommendation you made and have two follow up questions: - This is for a boat trailer, would the Dacromet finish version be better for a trailer that is frequently exposed to saltwater? - I am also planning to replace the surge brake actuator and brake lines. The surge brake actuator that is currently on the trailer is a titan model 20, welded to the frame. I’m thinking of replacing it with a titan model 10, zinc finish bolt-on version. The guy who built the trailer liked to ‘over-build’ everything, so i’m wondering if that 20,000 lb capacity actuator is really necessary - especially considering even the 12,500 capacity actuator is still above my trucks towing capacity. I just want to double-check that there wouldn’t be any issues with this. Specifically, looking at the Item # T4750620 actuator. The trailer is a very heavy steel trailer, probably about 2000-2500 lbs by itself. Thanks again,

Thanks so much for that info, and the 1.75" measurement you got for the inner bearing means that is a 25580 bearing; along with the outer bearing 14125A and the 8 on 6-1/2" bolt pattern, we can get you the correct disc brake hub and rotor to replace your drum brakes; what you will need is the following:
- Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 13" Hub/Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - Raw Finish - 7,000 lbs # K2HR712
- Bearing Kit for Trailer Brakes with 13" Hub/Rotor and 1/2" Bolts - 7,000 lbs # DBRKHW7
The # K2HR712 disc brake kit comes with the races but not the bearings or grease seal, which is why you'll need those. The hub on this brake kit uses 1/2" wheel studs, and mounts to a 5-bolt brake flange.
