Default Where to buy electric over hydraulic kit other than etrailer.com

I want to convert my triple axle to EOH Disc. Etrailer has the kit but backordered. Are there other good sites to get them from?

Heck, Etrailer was even back ordered on Demco master cylinders. Who the heck doesn't keep master cylinders in stock? They also went up in price twice in two days. I went elsewhere. One other thing, I did order some flexible brake hose from them and it took a full week to get here. Package sat in the UPS facility for 4 days before transferring to USPS for delivery.

What kit are you interested in? Dexter, Titan, Hydrastar? Several places to go instead of etrailer. Easternmarine, Pacific trailer, Kodiak, trailer parts depot to name a few. I used Croft Trailer and they were great. They weren't the cheapest, but I got my stuff in 2 days. Don't know if they have EOH stuff though.

I was looking at the Titan tandem axle kit from etrailer. Has everything for converting to EOH Disc. Then two extra discs and calipers for 3rd axle.

Looks like trailer depot has the same kit but no free shipping like etrailer so couple hundred bucks more.

Going to call a couple local places tomorrow but doubt they'll be able to come close on price. If f they can, I'll buy locally. If not, I'll do trailer depot.

Eastern Marine didn't have a kit, would just have to piece meal everything together and that gets more expensive. trailer depot it was out of stock as well so I ended up getting it through Amazon. Looks like it comes direct from Titan so let's hope it gets here quickly as it says it is in stock.

Looking forward to getting the trailer converted over to EOH. I've heard nothing but good things from people that have converted from surge. Thanks for the suggestions!

Let us know how it turns out. One of these days I may do the same. Have surge with disc now. Seems like I am always working on them.

Do you have a factory controller in your tow vehicle?

I'm going from surge drum to EOH disc so it should be quite an improvement.

I didn't have a factory controller. I ended up going with the Tekonsha P3. Easy as pie to install in my Tundra. They make an adapter cable that plugged right into the factory harness under the driver kick panel. I ended up mounting it in an unused cubby hole. If I'd have mounted it under the dash, it would have been a 10 minute install.
