Do they make stainless wheels for boat trailers

[Fish On]

Jim,

I changed my drum brakes to stainless steel disc (Champion) in 2005. I haven't moved the trailer since last fall :-( but I had not had a problem up until then and they look very good. I rinse them with a simple green solution after each launch and haul. The exposure of the system vs. drum makes the rinse very effective.

My notes from my boat maintenance log are below. The do it yourself price is without the master cylinder is was $450 and the job was not that bad. Give me a call if you have any other Q's. That may not solve your entire issue but I hope it helps

Trailer Brakes
Disc
From Champion
$604 includes UPS Ground and master cylinder (no master cylinder saves $150)
Rotars are stainless steel and will not rust
Info needed:
Make/Model of brake coupler
Bearing ID Numbers
inner 68149
outer 44649
Seal
Bolt Pattern: 5 bolts on 4 1/2 " circle (should be 2 1/4" from center of hug to middle of lug bolt)

As much as you use it I would disconnect and never look back!! I have a 23 footer and I tow all season and have no breaks! And if I have anything to say about it, I never will have them!

But I know a few that had drums, and all have converted to disks now, stopping power much better and you can get all SS parts.
