Expected milage from 5th wheel brakes
What is the the expected milage one could expect from the original brakes on a 5th wheel??

I'm at near 20k miles on my original brakes. I have a TT, but it scales at around 9200lbs loaded (has an 11k lb GVWR. I think next year I may flip the shoes front to back. The way magnetic drum brakes work is you only use one shoe when stopping going forward, and the other one when stopping in rev. So my shoes that only work in rev still have 90+% life on them. Car/truck drum brakes use both shoes however!
