Question:

I’m looking for the cheapest way to put brakes on my 2016 redwood 38gk. I see the Dacromet brakes but for only one side. Do you have both sides?

The two parts individually are the Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - Dacromet - 12" - 5,200 lbs to 7,000 lbs - Right Hand # AKEBRK-7R-D & Left Hand # AKEBRK-7L-D.

They come as a pair with the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Dacromet - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies # AKEBRK-7-D.

The only other thing you'll need with these is the Mounting Bolts and Hardware for 12" Brake Assemblies # BRKH12.
