Parts Needed To Convert Kodiak Disc Brake Kit K2HR712D To Oil Bath
Question:
Ive purchased the subject kit to convert my Dexter 7k axles to disc. Is there a bearing/seal to also convert to oil bath? From what Ive read it make sense to convert to oil bath versus grease while Im upgrading the brakes. Thanks for the info in advance.

We have just what you are looking for.
To convert your 7000lb Dexter axle with the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR712D from grease to oil bath you will need the Kodiak XL ProLube Kit # XLPROLUBE2440KIT. This includes in the seals to replace your current grease seals, new caps, and the oil.
You will need to make sure you completely remove all of the grease from your spindle to make sure it does not contaminate the oil.
I included a video of the # XLPROLUBE2440KIT for you to take a look at.
