Ooops, Posted this in Buying rather than here. /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

I've got a 16', dual axle trailer that I want to add brakes to. Here's what I do know:
1. Use Regular Caliper vs. Disc
2. Do Both axles vs. just one
3. Use Electric vs. Surge
I know I need a controller and I think I've got that figured, but your opinions count!

What am I missing, what's been your experience, Where are the how to web sites with pix (no search results on TBN ) for someone who's done a rear brake job on a jeep long, long ago. Most of all, what does the collective wisdom of fellow TBN'ers think they'd do, time and money not being an issue, to do it right. Thanks in advance!
