Trailer brake Failure
 
No biggy. Towed Cruis'n Rulz! to the gas station to glom onto some
(relatively) cheap gas. I can always tell how the surge brakes are
working on my Express tandem trailer by the way they 'come on' and feel
when slowing down. About the third stop, I noticed the trailer brakes
had stopped working. At the pump, sure enough, there was brake fluid
dripping out the front of one leg of the trailer frame. The one the
brake line runs down. I had replaced the brakes, actuator and rear lines
4 years or so ago. Turns out the line from the actuator, down the
channel to the front axle rusted completely through inside the frame.
Picked up a nice 25' roll of SS 3/16" brake line at the local auto
parts deal, And pulled a new front line in the trailer when I got back.
So, how's your brake lines, Eh?
