Routine brake/shock inspection, how?
Trailer is 2.5 years old and has ~ 10,000 miles. How do I check brakes and shocks? WIll have a shop do it if too complicated.

Pull the trailer wheel off. Remove cotter pin. Remove the large nut. Remove the drum. Look at the brake shoes. The brake material should be 3/8" thick. Any oil around the shock? 10k miles is nothing for a shock, unless you are doing the Baja 500 with your trailer.
