Expert Reply:

We do have brakes for the 6,000 pound Dexter axle on your 2013 Open Range Roamer. That size takes 12" x 2" brakes. For a set of self-adjusting brakes in this size I recommend # AKEBRK-7-SA.

The bearing kit for the 6k Dexter axles will be either # BK3-100 or # BK3-110. There are a couple of differences between these two sets.

Set # BK3-100 includes a cotter pin and a 10-36 seal which has an inner diameter of 2.250 inches and outer diameter of 3.376 inches.

Set # BK3-110 includes a cotter pin and a tang washer (used most commonly on EZ Lube axles) and a GS-2125DL seal. This seal has an inner diameter of 2.125 inches and outer diameter of 3.376 inches.
