rrlund, make sure on your trailer that the shoes are in their proper position. The shoe with the longest material goes on the back side. This helps in the self energization of drum brakes. If the shoes are not in their proper position they don't hold worth a darn. This is why drum brakes don't hold well when backing up, the self energization doesn't work. Apply your parking brake on your truck and back up then try to pull forward. I have seen many DIY'ers put drum shoes on and not know this and their vehicle doesn't stop well.
Now the electric magnets on your trailer don't get weak unless you have an electrical power problem not supplying the voltage they need to operate correctly, they either work or they don't. Rust on the drums or magnet can lessen the holding power though.
