You may also want to have some dielectric grease on hand to protect your connections from moisture, which can lead to corrosion over time. And don’t forget about safety; always wear gloves and safety glasses while working to protect yourself from metal shavings and other debris, plus ensure your trailer is securely positioned to prevent it from rolling while you’re under it. Being well-prepared and safe will help you tackle your trailer brake repair with confidence!
