New brakes and new LED tail lights....what a great day :)
The weather was perfect today in Louisiana so I got busy :)
I know I should have been camping, but that is coming. So I did the next best thing, turned up the country station, beer in hand and worked on the TT.
After 39,300 miles she got new brake assemblies and they are Dexter Nev-R-Adust. Also,new Dexter hubs, bearings, hardware.. etc.. from E-Trailer. I also, replaced the failing LED tail ligths with some new ones and greased the wet bolts.
I soldered and used shrink tubing on all the connections, my old brakes since new never pulled more than @ 10.5 amps. Now I tested the new brakes at 12 amps. :) perfect !!
Yes...it was a good day...
