    Trailer Brake Help

    My trailer brakes need to be bled and I cant figure out how to get this done. My truck took a beating last year and I'd like to have the brakes working this year. Can anyoe please give me the process of getting it done? What special tools if any I might need.... I'd rather not take it in. A friend of mine had his done last year and it was very $$$$. Thank so much guys!

    if I am not mistaken ( which I am very often) you have surge brakes and they need to be bled just like you would do your back brakes on the truck. you will need to have a friend help as it requires you to push the acuatour in and out just like pumping on a brake petal in the car. just make sure the boat is choked and such so it does not fall off the jack or stand.
