Replacement Electric Trailer Brakes for a 1995 Airstream Excella Classic Trailer  

Question:

I have a 1995 Airstream Excella Classic GVW 8200 lbs trailer 28foot with tandem axles which I believe are 4000 lbs. I want to replace all four brakes with 12 by 2 inch complete assemblies. Which brakes would best suit my purposes, the Dexters or the lesser expensive brand

Expert Reply:

If you have Dexter axles or any axle that uses the 5-bolt mounting flange, like # 4-44-1, then I would go with the tried and true Dexter assemblies, # 23-105 for the left side and # 23-106 for the right side. Dexter makes a good brake assembly that should last you a long time.

But if you have an ALKO or Hayes axle that uses a 4 bolt mount flange with the 2 top bolt holes further apart than the 2 bottom ones, you will have to use # 23-106-09 and # 23-105-09.
