You mentioned a 12-1/2 inch drum, but Dexter only list a 12-1/4 inch X 3-3/8 inch drum. The parts that I am recommending are for the Dexter Hub and Drum, # 8-218-9, which is the 12-1/4 inch X 3-3/8 inch drum.

I have the complete brake assemblies for the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum - 8,000 lbs Axles - 8 on 6-1/2, # 8-218-9. The complete assemblies would contain the magnets, actuating arms, brake shoes and springs and cast backing plate.

If you have the 4 bolt flange the brake assemblies you will need is the Dexter Electric Brake Assembly, LH, # 23-434, for the left side and the Dexter Electric Brake Assembly, RH, # 23-435, for the right side.

If you have the 7 bolt flange the brake assemblies would be the Dexter Electric Brake Assembly, LH, # 23-450, for the left side and the Dexter Electric Brake Assembly, RH, # 23-451, for the right side.
