Overview

Upgrade your trailer with SEHNSUCHT’s robust Trailer Axle Electric Brake Kit. Built around 10" x 2-1/4" brakes and paired with two 5-on-5 hub drums, this kit is designed for 3,500 lb axles. The iron drums feature an electroplated finish to resist rust and corrosion, helping components stand up to road grime, moisture, and seasonality.
