Better brakes

I have not been pleased with my brakes since I had the hydraulic controller many years ago. So when I needed to replace the brakes on my Cedar Creek 34 SATS I decided to do something different. I used brakes for a 7000lb axle. I have great brakes for the first time in many years. In city traffic I have set them at a very low setting and turn them off when parking but I am very pleased

That is interesting. I can see why it would make logical sense for a 7,500lbs axle to have beefier brakes than a 3,500 lbs axle but I guess I just figured they all used the same electric drum brakes.

Glad you found a great solution.

Vin.

The product description claims "more aggressive brake material and magnet."
