I absolutely detest drum brakes as they're so time consuming, awkward and such an old design. American trailers have been using disc brakes for years now and can't believe that Ifor Williams, Batesons...etc,etc still incorporate them into every trailer. I absolutely love those LED tail light upgrades as they are far more effective at night and day time running. Fantastic!!👍👍

Like a wise man once said. "You don't need brakes" haha I have only changed trailer brakes twice. And thankfully at that job they had the specialized tools to get it done. Not a maintenance shop just owner and us workers did as much work on machines as we could.

Nice work Kim , Trailer brakes always seem to be neglected by their owners. I usually find they are in need of total replacement with new parts. Then the owners moan about the cost.

I wire everything with the newer 13pin plugs. I just use 8 pins though. One of which is pink normally for reverse.

Is it 7pin wiring on it? It’s a simple job but if your car and your trailer only have 7pin you’re going to have to add a feed to the car from the reverse lights, as well as rewire the main cable down the trailer so it’s 8 core cable. It’s all quite easy (apart from maybe the car).
