Comparing Replacement Magnet Kit for 7" Electric Trailer Brake Assemblies BP01-068 and AKBRKR-M7
Question:
Can you please tell me what the difference is between these 2 brake magnets. Item # AKBRKR-M7 and Item#BP01-068. One is 3x more expensive yet they both seem to be the same product. Thank you.

The Replacement Magnet Kit for 7" Electric Trailer Brake Assemblies part # AKBRKR-M7 and Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet Kit for 7" Brake Assemblies part # BP01-068 are both round brake magnets for 7", 2,000 lb trailer braking assemblies. That said, the former is made for etrailer/Axle Tech braking assemblies and the latter is made for Dexter braking assemblies. It's possible they are cross-compatible but I don't recommend it. I recommend simply going with the one that matches what brand of braking assemblies you have.
