Can etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes be Used in Place of Dexter Brakes
Question:
Will these work as a replacement for my current breaks in the attached pic? I tried to take a pic of the information on the back of my breaks. Also which breaks do you recommend these etrailer by AxleTek Trailer Brakes or the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly? I need them for my toy hauler so will need 2 left and 2 right side ones.

Thank you for the picture. It is a great help in identify the right brakes for you. The etrailer 10 x 2-1/4 self-adjusting brake assemblies # AKEBRK-35-SA is the set for you. They include both a left and a right so ordering 2 sets will give you 2 rights and 2 lefts.
The etrailer brakes are high quality. Specifically the pad material for the shoes is actually cut to length rather than snapped off of a long strip. Cutting the material helps prevent cracking and chipping of the pad material so I do highly recommend the etrailer brakes. And they cost less than the Dexter brakes so that's a bonus! I have linked a video on the etrailer brakes for you.
