Brake Assembly Recommendation for a Dexter 4,400 lb Axle with 10 inch Assemblies
Question:
I am trying to rebuild my trailer brakes. I have a dexter axles with numbers 3722505....... 4,000 lbs. My book by dexter that came with my fifth wheel says I need replacement part K71-125-00 4.4k for the brake magnets and part number K71-672-00 for the brake shoe replacement kit. I assume I need the 4.4k and not the 3.5K. My drum diameter is 10inch and the brake shoe width is 2.25. I cannot find those numbers on your website for the correct parts. Can you help me out with these numbers please. I have 2 axles and I forrest river camper. I was potentially looking for the complete replacement assembly however my bolt pattern is 3 1/16th by 3 1/4inch . On your website the bolt pattern that came closest was 2 7/8ths by 3 1/4. That is why I think I will just rebuild with a new magnet and brake shoes. Getting close to memorial day and I have no brakes. Thanks for any help you can give me. Thanks

By the time you add up the cost to replace the magnets and shoes on your trailer you are at the cost (or more) for all new assemblies plus you end up saving yourself the trouble of messing with trying to install all the components.
For an exact replacement for the assemblies of your trailer you would want the part # K23-478-00 for the left hand side and part # K23-479-00 for the right hand side.
Replacement parts for these assemblies are even harder to find than normal assemblies due to the unusual pairing of the size of these assemblies and their capacity.
