How to Install the Hydrastar Disc Brake Kit on a 2018 Grand Design Momentum 5W Toy Hauler- Video

Hey guys, it's Jake here with etrailer. Today we have a 2018 Grand Design Momentum Triple Axle Toy Hauler and we're gonna be taking a look at, and I'm gonna show you how to install the Hydrastar disc brake kit. This particular kit is designed to fit triple axle trailers and axles up to 7,000 pounds in capacity. And for this particular trailer, this has a GVWR of 20,000 pounds. That is a very, very heavy trailer being pulled behind a pickup truck. What I recommend is checking the sticker on the side of your camper, which is typically on the driver's side up by your leveling controls or checking the axle to see how much your camper weighs and how much each of your axle capacities are, in order to get the right kit. more

This vehicle itself has a GVWR of 21,000 pounds, so that's a lot of weight. The disc brakes are going to perform way better than your standard drum brakes. A drum brakes, the biggest problem with them is that they get really hot, and they do not like to cool down because they're all contained inside the drum. more
