Replacement Disc Brakes For a DHM Boat Trailer With 2,860LB Axle Rating and 14" Diameter Wheels
Question:
I have 2001 MB Sports with a DHM trailer. The brakes are in need of replacement. The tag on the trailer says GVWR 5720 and 2860 GVWR per axle. The wheels are 14x6. They are disc brakes on the front axle. Do you have the brakes needed for this trailer? Thanks.

Based on the information you provided you most likely have a 10" disc brake kit like the Kodiak # KOD59FR. The only way to verify exactly what you have or will need to replace them is by contacting the trailer manufacturer with your VIN information or by disassembling one of your hubs to measure and verify the correct parts and sizes. This Kodiak attaches to a Mounting Flange # 4-35 with the bolt holes spread 2-7/8" vertically and horizontally. You will also need to check the spindle. The Grease Seal # 58846 (1.719" inner diameter), Inner Bearing # L68149 (1.378" inner diameter) and Outer Bearing # L44649 (1.063" inner diameter). The hub has a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern. If this matches what you have you will need the Mounting Bolts # BRKH10A to attach the new caliper brackets.
