How To Determine Which Disc Brake Kits Fit 8,000lb Axles On Triple Axle Car Trailer  

Question:

I’m looking to change my 8k axles on my car hauler to hydraulic disc, but I don’t know what part’s I’ll need to change 3 axles and all hardware needed. Could you please advise because all I see is stuff for 7k axles.

Expert Reply:

I'd be happy to help, but parts for 8,000lb axles is pretty specific so you'll need to find out what brand axles you have on your car hauler.

For Dexter axles you'll need (3) of the Kodiak Brake Kit # K2HR858DD, or if you have ALKO/Quality axles you'll need (3) of the # K2HR89AD instead.

In addition to the brake kits you'll need the following parts:

Brake line kit # HS496-253

Actuator # HBA16

Also you'll need to make sure the trailer brake controller you have is compatible with EOH brakes. If yours isn't I recommend going with the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195 as we've found it to be the most reliable when it comes to EOH brakes.
