Instructions for Brake Rotor Kit
6K or 8K Hydraulic Disc Brakes
Notice to Buyer
It is recommended that all brakes be replaced at the same time to ensure
balanced braking performance.
Remove the old brake rotor
1. Jack up trailer and secure on adequate capacity jack stands. Follow
trailer manufacturers recommendations for lifting and supporting the
unit.
CAUTION
Do not lift or support the trailer on any part of the axle or suspension
system. Never go under any trailer unless it is properly supported on
jack stands which have been rated for the load. Improperly supported
vehicles can fall unexpectedly and cause serious injury or death.
2. Remove the wheel from the hub, leaving the brake exposed.
3. Disable the brake actuation system. Check that the hydraulic system has
zero pressure and that the hub and rotor rotates freely.
4. For brakes produced after April 2008, locate the crossover brake line
threaded into the bottom side of both calipers. The crossover brake line
is attached to the inboard side of the anchor yoke using a metal tube
clamp. Remove the
1/4-20 bolt that connects the tube clamp to the yoke.
5. Remove the four caliper mounting bolts. Do not allow the caliper
assembly to hang from the hose. Do not disconnect the hose or allow air
into the hydraulic system.
6. With the caliper assembly out of the way remove the brake rotor. Save
the brake mounting hardware for reinstalling the brake calipers.
