Can the Brakes On A Motorhome Axle Be Replaced?

Question:

I have a trailer that has two mobile home axles that I would like to upgrade with new brakes and hubs that will accept normal wheels and tires. What would I need to make this conversion?

Since motorhome axles are considered one time use, they are not designed or intended to be used with standard trailer parts. With that being said, you're going to have to replace your axles.

I know this is not what you were looking to do, however in this situation it is going to be the only viable solution for you.

I'd be more than happy to assist you find what you're needing, however I am first going to need to a couple of measurements. I'm going to need the distance from the spring center to spring center, and the distance from the hub face to hub face.

With these measurements, I'd be more than happy to help you out.

I have attached a couple of FAQs for you to check out as well.
