Demco Trailer Brakes DM60124 Review Video

You'll want to pick up a paint for the Tandem Axle Trailer Fenders w/ Backing Plates #HP32VR that's designed for steel but that's about it. If you can find a paint that has good corrosion resistance then that would be optimal…

You have a 3500 pound axle, with a 4-bolt axle flange, spaced 4” apart each. You also have tires and wheels with a 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern. To put brakes on your West Texas Dolly #WTD-35D you will need a left and right trailer brake kit like the…

I do have an option for you but none of our trailer brake assemblies are designed for this brake mounting flange pattern. Therefore, I recommend new flanges which will need welded to the axle; part #4-34 for 1-3/4"axles, part #4-35 for…

I checked the sizes for you, and both of these electric brakes are in fact 12" diameter x 3-3/8" wide: - Left Hand Side: Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly #K23-532-00 - Right Hand Side: Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Assembly…

To get the best braking power for your boat trailer you would want to have disc brakes on both axles. If you happen to be limited to one axle then you would want the rear outfitted. With a 5,000lb boat you likely have two 3,500lb torsion axles. The…

We have a folding trailer tongue hinge that could work for the purpose you describe, as long as your trailer frame isn't constructed of aluminum. You could use the Fulton Fold Away Coupler Hinge, part #FHDPW330300. The hinge kit is designed for 3…

The use of Lock N Roll Articulating Trailer Hitch for 2" Receivers #336VS501 does not add sway to the setup. Couplers normally can articulate to the left and right like what this allows so it would not be any more prone to sway than a ball style…
