I once found it on a RV parts website but can't now. Its model number 100400B. My tow vehicle has air brakes but my trailer has electric. When I break down and buy another trailer I'll definitely go with air/hydraulic disc. I finally got sick enough of looking at all the way way overpriced, worn out diesel duallys and just built me a truck. I took a regular semi-tractor and removed one drive axle, chopped off the frame and put a 1 ton pulling bed on it to tow my dual tandem.
