What Info Is Needed to Pick Out Replacement Disc Brake Components for Ranger Trail Bay Trailer
Question:
I have a friend with a ranger trail bay boat trailer. He was told he had to use only ranger trailer disc brake parts. Is it possible to convert to kodiak or deemax disc brakes? Currently has 9 inch rotor hub combo. If the hubs need to change he is good with that.

Hey Brady, I would be surprised if the trailer had Ranger brand disc brake parts on it and not a different more well-known brand like Kodiak or DeeMax like you mentioned. But anything is possible so what I would recommend is have him check out the calipers and see if there is a brand name or any part numbers listed.
Also let me know what replacement parts are needed and the axle capacity and wheel bolt pattern.
