Replacement brake pads for trailer?

[Pewaukee Dave]

I just ordered new wheels and tires for my trailer. After 7 years the dry rot has set in and the wheels were getting a little rusty. As long as it's apart I should throw some new pads in. Does anyone know the part # or where I can pick up pads?

Where did you order from? I've wanted to switch out to radials this year.

IMHO, Usually the brake calipers will seize up long before the pads will wear out (at least on the older MFI trailers). I bought replacement calipers which come with new pads from http://www.pacifictrailers.com/ufp-disc-brake-calipers-pads-db35-db42/ they do sell the pads separate for pretty cheap too.

I forgot to mention that the MFI trailers use UFP DB35 brake calipers.

I ordered these wheels from an eBay listing. (I got them on a Best Offer for $110 each shipped)

I am getting Carlisle Trail RH trailer tires from our local Farm and Fleet for $75 each. I am going to get 215/75R-14 tires.

MFI trailers use UFP DB35 brake calipers.????

Were these used on all MFI trailers?
I have a 2010 AR240 with MFI trailer; Curious if these would fit? What would fit? Or how to check and verify?

I'm not sure on your year. I'd be willing to bet that they would be the same, but not 100% sure. My old caliper did have UFP cast into the body of it. (See pic). I'm sure Pacific Trailers could help you over the phone. Give them a call to verify. I went there in person and they literally had pallets full of them. I ended up spending a couple extra $ and bought aluminum ones to help with corrosion.
