I upgraded to the brake right 1500psi unit last summer with stock drums. It was a huge improvement but told myself I also wanted to upgrade to disc. I just ordered a complete disc brake conversion kit and all new lines. Plan to do it in the next 2 weeks.
Can't wait!

EOH is hands down the best system out there. However, I have had great luck with standard electric brakes. I have used them in a fresh water marine environment for a long time with no issues. The braking action is superb, and the cost to convert is about 25% of a EOH setup.

No that was just an example. I just ordered 4 loaded 10" 3500lb electric drum sets, 2 backing plates for another axle and a 4 brake controller.

Can you elaborate a little? Is this what you are talking about?

Yes, those are straight electrics, albeit WAY too small!
Just measure your drums, and order the assembleys. It's that simple. check out www.etrailer.com I have had good luck wuith them in the past.
