Have you considered the one-man bleeding trick with a bottle filled with brake fluid? I saw a few videos on RU-vid and even the etrailer people said that it would work.
I had 3 different trailers with brakes every one had the factory brakes and in 3 months of being new failed even when flushed with fresh water salt water and brakes don't mix
Itl be ok! It’s the same as letting your car sit for a few days after a rain. Rotors will develop some rust on them, but first use Itl wear off. Worse case is the pads get a little more wear to them for the first few brakes. Based on how much the trailer gets used, shouldn’t really affect the overall life of the pad. Best practice, especially in saltwater is to make sure you rinse off the brakes after an outing!
@@boatingpropless ok yeah cause a shop I took it to says they are rusted so they need to be changed...lol...i am being charged $1,800 for 4 rototrs and full brakes cause the pads disintegrated...i will be moving it back home to do this myself and see if anyone can "turn" the rotors...
your doing it wrong... pump the piston and hold and keep pressure.. Open the bleed port. let fluid and air out. close the port. Pump the piston on few times and repeat until clean fluid or no more air comes out. Never let off the piston with bleed port open this will allow suction and air back into the bleed port. or Water that you put in the bottle. It has to be a closed loop system they way you think you are doing.
Yes. That’s what I was demonstrating. She was holding pressure on the actuator, while I was opening and closing the valve with the other end of the tube in the water bottle.
