Noisy Brakes
« on: October 05, 2018, 08:38:33 pm »
Hi, I have a 2012 Timber ridge 27DBH travel trailer. I love the trailer buy the brakes sound awful at speeds less than 20kph.  The brake shoes and drums are in great condition and I have cleaned out all dust and see no signs of any glazing. Any ideas on how to quiet them down?? :-\

Wish I could give you some advice. I have never run into a noisy brake issue on any of the trailers I have had... Good Luck in tracking down the issue.

By awful, do you mean that they are squealing ? or, is it a grating sound ?
Do they make the awful noise on paved roads , or dusty gravel roads ?

The sound is a hi pitch squeal that occurs at speeds lower  than 20kph on all road types, while braking normally not aggressively.

I am not a qualified brake mechanic, but in the past ,when I had a similar problem  on cars I roughed the brake shoes with sand paper, or emory cloth, & that usually took care of the squealing.
