New Titan disc

Wow! What a difference! Had new Titan disc brakes & 17.5 Sailun tires installed yesterday & went for a test run this morning & money well spent on both!!

Yes, I agree. A much more confident feeling about ability to stop quickly.

My Titan brakes worked great in the beginning and since have faded after 1,500 miles. Yesterday there was very little braking at 30 MPH using the paddles fully squeezed and the output on 10. Sump oil level is spot on. Much less braking than with the grease soaked electrical brakes they replaced. Suggestions welcomed.

Contact Ron...IMO he won't let you down. And he is really good at trouble shooting.

John, Titan Guys installer, got 2 other disc upgrades on rigs next to me & between those 2 he probably saved one or both a breakdown on the highway, bad bearings, broken shackles, broken/bent equalizers & worn out brake shoes. The one fellow had both equalizers bent, one broken & one of the shackles had pulled/worn through the bottom bolt hole, he was lucky as he'd just driven 2500 miles to get here last week. As I told him I'd rather be lucky than good any day!
