Braking is About Safety

Fifth wheel and travel trailer owners know the importance of brakes that are performing properly. And, many would be more than willing to invest in larger or better performing brakes for their trailer. The installation of the MOR/ryde IS system is an excellent opportunity for trailer owners to upgrade the size or type of brake that is on their unit. When installing the MOR/ryde IS system, there is no additional labor required to change the size of the electric brakes. And, because MOR/ryde buys direct from the axle manufacturer, we can offer the larger brakes at a significant discount. Also available is the new Nev-R-Lube™ sealed cartridge bearing from Dexter Axle. The Nev-R-Lube™ is a sealed cartridge bearing that features a 100,000 mile warranty. This means no annual bearing packs or changeouts.

The following is a summary of the brake options that are available from MOR/ryde.
