I recently had a caliper failure on my 2008 EZ Loader trailer. It has the UFP db-35 style. So I've decided it was a good time to update my brakes on both sides. I stopped by Eastern Marine the other day to see what my options are. The associate was very willing to help, but I'm not sure if all his info was 100%. He had suggested converting to Kodiak style brakes as he said the are less finicky and easier to maintain. He said there is nothing wrong with UFP though. He also suggested going with flexible brake line instead of hard line. I also have Vault hubs and was considering servicing them while I was in there. Nothing is wrong with them though, just 10 years old. Any reason I should go with Kodiak over UFP? Hard vs flexible brake line? I am going to call about the Vault hub service as they suggest. I am not still covered under warranty though. I do fish the upper Chesapeake, and the Potomac so it is considered brackish water. I want to make sure I do this right the first time. I have never serviced a boat trailer before but I am very mechanically inclined so I plan on doing all of this myself. Any suggestions or recommendations are greatly appreciated. Thanks.
