Trail-Rite Boat Trailer Brakes

[Steve Craig]

Anyone have a P/N for a set of brake pads ?
Our trailer was the OEM unit sold with the boat.
Dual axle, hydraulic disc brakes.

Must be a cross to an '00 Cavalier, maybe a Civic?

Thanks.

Shoreland'r would have been the OEM (provided by Sea Ray) trailer. Without knowing what brand of brakes that Trail-Rite uses, your best bet is probably to get them from the dealer that sold you the trailer. The other complication is that trailer manufacturer's may change brake suppliers at any given time, making it even harder to guess what what would work for you. You'll also need to know if you have 10" or 12" (likely 10").

Dennis,
Possible Sea ray used Trail Rite for a year or two?
Underside of the boards (name) the boat physically sits on are marked "210 SR" on all 4 pieces. This has me thinking it may have been the OEM Sea Ray trailer. Can't be positive.

I'll see if I can make contact with Trail-Rite. I'll measure the discs before I call, their website has no on-line contact info..

Thanks for the reply.

What happened is the selling dealer didn't originally order the OEM trailer for that boat (or used it under another boat before you purchased yours so they were down a trailer) so they ordered that TrailRite to keep the costs down. TrailRite spec'd it for the 210SD, which is why you see it labeled as such. Nothing to worry about.

Edit: forgot to mention... If you're calling TR, right down the VIN, first.

Call trailrite. They will be able to get you the parts. They were reasonably priced when I last dealt with them..as suggested, have your VIN handy.

Sounds right. I don't know the history as I just bought the boat/trailer used.

Thanks again for the help.

Trail Rite Boat Trailer with DB42 caliper set-up, dual axle, disc brakes matches up to a '91 Plymouth Acclaim.
Organic pads pretty scarce locally, I have a set incoming from the US.

Cheers.

Got a real nice introduction to boat trailer brakes!
Reverse solenoid gone, one caliper seized, brake pads-expected, roll pins on the brake set-up seized in place,break-away cable gone, two rotors gone,new grease seals needed once the rotors were off. All this to satisfy the annual MVI making it both safe & legal,( impress upon the "safe" part), to put it on the road.
Should be good for a few years with proper maintenance. Don't think the previous owner knew the term also applies to trailers.
Sure is a different animal pulling it down the road.
