FAQs

What specific trailer models is this kit for?

This kit is designed for Ifor Williams TA510 Livestock Trailers with a 3500kg Maximum Allowable Mass (MAM).

Are these brake parts universal?

No, they are specifically for the Ifor Williams TA510 3500kg model. It is critical to verify part identity against your trailer's original components before fitting due to potential manufacturing variations.

What is the ECE R90 approval?

ECE R90 is a European standard that ensures replacement brake parts (like brake shoes) meet or exceed the performance of the original equipment manufacturer's parts.

Can I use this kit on a tri-axle trailer?

No, this kit is not suitable for tri-axle trailers.

What is the length of the brake cables?

The front axle brake cables have an outer length of 1130mm and an inner length of 1340mm. The rear axle brake cables have an outer length of 1990mm and an inner length of 2200mm.

Are the brake adjusters compatible with older trailers?

The included brake adjuster kits are only compatible with trailers manufactured post-2003.

How do I know if the parts will fit my trailer?

While designed for the specified model, trailers can have variations. You must compare each part in the kit with your trailer's original components before installation to ensure an exact match.

Troubleshooting

Brakes are not engaging or are weak after installation.

Check that the brake cables are correctly routed and tensioned. Verify that the brake adjusters have been properly set to engage the shoes against the drum. Ensure all springs are correctly installed and providing tension.

One or more wheels are not braking effectively.

Inspect the brake shoes and drum on the affected wheel for any debris or damage. Confirm that the brake shoe expander and spring set are correctly fitted and functioning.

Brake adjusters do not fit or engage correctly.

Confirm that your trailer is a post-2003 model, as the adjusters are specific to this period. Double-check that you are using the correct brake adjuster kit for the wheel and that it matches the original component's specifications.

Brake cables appear too long or too short.

Ensure you are using the correct front or rear cable as specified. Verify that the outer cable is seated correctly in its anchor points and that the inner cable has the appropriate free play before it engages the brake mechanism.
