Expert Reply:

The Kodiak Disc Brakes # KOD69FR will fit on 5,200lb axles which use the #42 spindle dimensions. This is the most commonly used size but depending on the age of your trailer you may want to inspect your spindle. It will have a grease seal landing 2.25" in diameter, Inner bearing 1.75" in diameter and the out bearing landing 1.25" in diameter. If you are only looking at the Kodiak 12" Hub-and-Rotor Assembly # KHR12D to replace any current brakes you will need to ensure the brake system used is Kodiak so it will line up correctly.
