I only came here to learn how to install brakes on my utility trailer. I really appreciate the fact that you showed how the system works. Thanks for the informative video!

[@bambam7852]

Never wired a trailer before in my life, easy video to understand and confident i can wite my new trailer, thank you sir

[@richsharp1524]

You always do such a great job explaining everything you do …. Thank you this was so helpful as all your videos are 😁

[@ntdracing]

Thanks.

[@MrNytrosdad]

Just came across your video while looking at Bend tech which i have owned for 10 years (Great program) I love your common man approach, I did not understand how the brakes worked either, and you just taught me how to solder correctly. So THANK YOU!!

[@19sxfr]

Great tips, learned how brakes work, and how to solder. Cant wait to convert mine.

[@davewagner5618]

Clear, concise and to the point. Excellent video. Thanks!

[@mabmachine]

Good video, looking forward to seeing the new shop. Kind of surprised the trailer didn't already have brakes. I didn't think you could buy a trailer without brakes. Around here all the tandems have brakes on both axles.

[@medcitymoto]

All depends on the state! Minnesota doesn't require if the GVWR is under 3k lbs empty. I plan on running my new cargo trailer closer to that 3k lbs point so here I am, better to have 'em and not need them, than the inverse!

[@LanceGreene-b7n]

And thanks fod the video...was informative and to the point and didnt waste any of my time with corny stupid jokes...ty

I have an older 1996 Winnebago RV that I am having a lot of problems finding brake drums for. If you can find them at all, they will be expensive. This has a single rear axle with drums and 4 wheels. I am wondering if I could just change out the whole braking system (just the components that you showed). This would allow me to get pads and drums again when I need them. I am pretty sure that the original system uses brake cables instead of magnets, but welcome to the 21st century. I could adjust my brakes on the road with a simple digital adjustment.

great job explaining and filming!

[@davidlassiter7769]

Great video and thanks for sharing.

[@holeshot1721]

More wheel speed equals stronger magnet pressure when activated

[@LanceGreene-b7n]

I notice you said 3500 pound axles....i have a 6 lug...what will be the difference?

[@arnesen.design]

Great info. Thanks!

[@ElChupa_Cabra]

Did you wire every wire brake separately to the junction box? Or did you connect both brakes together then one wire to the junction box?

[@bruce3579]

So these brakes didn't work out good?

[@wendyb9923]

if your trailer has 4 wheels, do you need an electric brake for every wheel?

[@wuilianlopez4812]

Can can you do a video of how to wiring

[@codyjohnson713]

Did you do the front or rear axle? How did your test drive go?

[@mrcoz1764]

What ga. wire are you using for the brakes ??

[@moejr14]

How have these brakes held up?

[@HarryScanlan]

How does the brake trigger? Do you need a brake controller with this setup ?

[@ntdracing]

Yes

[@John-te4nu]

Heat shrink and tape

[@haroldlovett4452]

You should have put the brakes on the rear axle for best results.

[@ntdracing]

You are probably right. I had asked around and the consensus was the front. I plan to add a set to the back.

[@cenobytecode]

​@@ntdracinghow did they perform on your trips?

[@MattNation]

Didn’t show how you adjust them

[@axercst]

What did you do on the other axle?

[@ntdracing]

I ended up putting brakes on both axles.

[@John-te4nu]

I thought this was for disc brakes should be the same concept as drums

[@moon1cruiser]

How do I find your store on Amazon

[@ntdracing]

Sorry…will make sure to put this in the description…thanks for watching.

[@John-te4nu]

Why didn't you. Install disc brakes while you were at not much more

[@haroldlovett4452]

You need to learn how to pack a wheel bearing. You just smeared it on the outside of the bearing.

[@ntdracing]

Any chance you can give a step by step on how you do it. Will be helpful to others who read this. Thanks.

[@tanyaf-p6242]

This is how I was taught too, by scraping it through the grease, you force it up and into all the places that just rubbing it on would not get.

[@ntdracing]

@@tanyaf-p6242thanks.

[@joshualord9041]

@@ntdracingyou use a similar method to what you did. Put grease on the palm of your hand, but instead of rolling it through, you put it on its flat edge and squeeze the grease into the slot that goes around the edge of the bearing
