Replacing and Adjusting Brake Cables on Knott Avonride Braked, Brian James Minno Trailer

[@afoster1621]

Thank you for the video Doug. I have one of these trailers and its good to have a reference point when you know nothing about trailers like me! Looks easy now

[@DougsShed]

Glad it was helpful!

The trailer is a perfect fit for the car and with the new brakes it will be a breeze to tow. Nice work

Just about to build my own twin axle boat trailer and looked everywhere for an example of a break cable set up. Luckily i eventually found your video. Nice one thanks its helped me know what parts i need. 👍👍

Excellent video. I’m currently in the process of overhauling the brakes on my minno. You couldn’t help with a part number for the cables? New tie down straps look great as well. 👍

Brilliant thank you! Mine is/are two Brian James Minnows (no longer available)

So now both the Jeffrey and the Trailer has brakes.

The Jeffrey now stops and the trailer no longer gets stuck brakes when I reverse or use the handbrake.
