Recommended Electric Trailer Brakes for 7K Axle
Question:
Their ia a significant price difference the Dexter brakes vs etrailers brand for the 7000 lbs self adjust kits. Is it worth the added cost?

Expert Reply:
Dexter does make excellent products, but in this case I recommend going with our Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-7-SA over the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit # 23-464-465.
They both have the same features except that the etrailer.com option has pads that are cut during production as opposed to snapped off. This results in the etrailer.com brake pads lasting longer and having better resistance against wear and tear.
