Howdy All,

I am seriously contemplating doing the disk brake up grade to my trailer.  I am seriously considering this kit, has anyone used a kit from etrailer.com and in particular this brand?  Do you have any recommendations for other companies to deal with or brand of product?

Thanks for any advice you can offer.

I used the Kodiak discs. Used the bludot air over hydraulic also. Got my brakes from etrailer also. Kit you looking at may be Kodiak disc rebranded. Replacement pad is Kodiak.

Etrailer did make a mistake with my order. Got 3 brackets for 8k and 3 brackets for 7k. I needed all 8k. My axles are 7k with 8k brakes. So physically look at yours. Just because axles 7k don't mean brakes are
