We offer electric brake assemblies that measure 12-1/4 x 4 inches and 12-1/4 x 5 inches, but do not have any that measure 12-1/4 x 4-1/2.

For 10,000 lb axles and for a 12-1/4 inch x 4 inch I recommend part # BP04-335 for the right hand and part # BP04-325 for the left hand.

For 12,000 lb axles if you need the 12-1/4 inch x 5 inch brake shoes I recommend part # BP04-370 for the right hand and part # BP04-360 for the left hand.

To determine the size of the hub assembly you need to purchase you have to determine which bearings are in the old assembly. If the old assembly has L44649 inner bearings, you would use the hub you chose #8-258-5UC1. If the inner bearings are marked…

Answer 7

Your math is correct in your trailer weight load example. If a fully-loaded tandem axle trailer weighs 4000-lbs then each of the 4 tires will bear 1/4th of that load, or 1000-lbs. In this case a tire rated for 1300-lbs would provide a good safety…

The "KTC 7600" stamped on the brake pad doesn't look to be a part number, so I can't cross reference it, but we do know you have Kodiak ceramic brake pads. So to determine the correct brake pads, all you need to do is match up…

The three most common lug stud sizes for a trailer are 1/2"-20, 9/16"-18, and 5/8"-18. In order to make sure you get the correct lug nuts you need to measure the lug studs on the trailer now as we have no way to look this up for…
