I have been asked to comment on the “Disc Brake Demo” and have been reluctant because based on my experience it was a cluster. Not what I have come to expect from Titan.
While the end result was everything I would expect from an Electric/Hydraulic Disc Brake System, stopping power, how we got there was not what I expected.
Lesson learned, again! Check all parts before starting install! We had wrong parts shipped in and a fitment issue on a caliper. Fortunately, I had a Kodiak system with me and we ended up with a hybrid Titan/Kodiak system on my 38GK. As I have previously stated, “There are no performance differences between Kodiak and Titan disc brakes” and are in fact interchangeable. The performance difference is in the Titan EHB Actuator and is the only actuator I will use.
I felt attendance was good, some 20 +/- stopped by for some conversation and about 6 that spent more than 2-3 hours.
The 38GK had very poor braking and found 1 brake was full of grease. Shane, it was the right rear, just like yours. The stopping power of disc brakes is truly amazing. The ability to stop over 50% faster without locking things up truly adds a level of safety unmatched by any other $3k investment.
I left Shipshewana early Sunday and drove 500 miles to our Union City, TN. Plant to check and hand pick calipers for some orders I have in the system. Loaded my truck with 3 systems, 800 lbs. and am now at Cajun RV Park, Breaux Bridge, La. And working my way back to Oklahoma doing 2 training conversions on the way.
