Default Disk Breaks

Well after just 1 ½ years or (in water) service I had to replace my disk breaks. My Loadmaster came with regular disk break system. I replaced with the Kodiak stainless steel disks and calipers plus I replaced the master cylinder and the electronically sender unit that disengages the surge brakes when you back up. Every time I took the boat out which must have been 60 to 80 times in that 1 ½ year period I washed the breaks off with fresh water but when I pulled the breaks they looked like I never did anything to help make them last. If anyone is looking to buy a new trailer make sure you buy one with the stainless steel breaks from the get go will save you a lot of time and effort a year and a half down the road. Oh buy the way approx $600. in parts plus one day lost for quality vacation fishing time.
