In automotive (similar systems, largely same batteries and use cycles) it's RARE to have a battery be good much out beyond 3 years. I test customers' batteries every day, and probably 1/3-1/2 fail at their rated load capacity 12-14 months old - even though they will start and run the vehicle fine most days, until ambient temps approach freezing. If the batteries are 3 or more years older, I'd replace them with as high a rated ones as you can find, or get them tested at a minimum.

How has the cover held up long term? Any issues with rubbing?

Looking to simplify my life a bit. Have any of you ever paid to have this installed on your boat from your dealership? if so, what was the price?

where did you order a new Master Cylinder from and how hard was that to install?
Could the brakes be sticking, even if I had the brake lock-out in place?
Thanks
I did replace the calipers. I think I was able to identify them based off the stampings on them and then cross referenced to the UFP catalog (I think I linked it earlier in this thread), and ended up sourcing on Amazon from some trailer store. They may have come from "Shadow Trailers" as well. I'm not sure anymore. https://www.google.com/search?q=ufp+db-35+caliper&rlz=1C1GCEB_enUS966US966&oq=UFP+DB&gs_lcrp=EgZjaHJvbWUqBwgCEAAYgAQyBggAEEUYOTIKCAEQLhiABBjlBDIHCAIQABiABDIHCAMQABiABDIHCAQQABiABDIHCAUQABiABDIHCAYQABiABDIHCAcQABiABDIHCAgQABiABNIBCDc3MThqMGoxqAIAsAIA&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
The master I got from Boatmate (their parts pricing was better, even shipped). https://www.boatmateparts.com/product_details.php?itmId=1827
If calipers are hanging up with the master locked out, you either have a caliper sticking like I previously showed in the video link, or you could have a bad hose that is failed internally. I really truly doubt that's the case for you because it's all wheels at different situations. I guess it's possible the main feed line is damaged coming off the master cylinder if you have a folding tongue, but I'd seriously doubt it.
Did you already bleed the brakes? If so, what did the fluid look like that came out of the bleeder screws on the calipers?
Also, now I'm just looking for a reason to make a work trip out to the RDU area, if I can/do, I'll make some time to swing by and see what's going on. Can't guarantee that I'll be out there though.
