Thread: 3.5t trailer brake recommendations

Looking at building a 3.5t trailer and wondering if anyone has recommendations for a decent tandem braking/axle setup?

Quite a few manufactures out there, don't really want to have a ute mounted controller so was looking at the cable setups with disks or 4 drums. Are there any manufactures to avoid?

The cheap ass in me just says put 3.5t spring, axles and wheels on it with 2.5t hydraulic brakes but I want to do it properly for a big flatdeck tipper trailer. Cheers for any help.
