Yes we do have Dexter brake lines that can be used with brake assemblies like the # K71-633-2 like with the part # HS496-252 for a tandem axle trailer or # 18SI-BLKIT which is for a single axle trailer.

I must recommend that you replace the hub/drum as well when changing the size of your braking assemblies because the surface area on the old drums may not line up with the new braking assemblies which is why I recommend replacing both at the same…

I reached out to EZ Loader who verified your spindles will require the 1.687 Seal #168255TB. So you would need to change out the seal to use the Kodiak Disc Brakes Kit #KOD49FR you found.

Yes, the Timken Bearing Kit #TMK52VR will fit your 3,500 lb axle as it fits an standard #84 spindle. The only time this kit won't fit with a 3,500 lb axle is if the trailer/axle is made before the 2000's since that's about the time that…

There is a replacement that I recommend for the Tie Down 70E disc brake actuator, though you will want to verify that your mounting bolt holes are 3 inches apart on center and your tongue is a 3 inch channel. If they are I recommend the Dexter DX7.5…

The two sizes you mentioned are pretty similar and fit many of the same 15 inch wheels. The 205/75-15 fits rim widths of 5 inch to 6-1/2 inch whereas the 225/75-15 fits widths that are 5 inch to 6 inch. The 205 is 27.1 inches tall and the 225 is 28.4…

I have attached a chart you can check out that describes the torque needed per wheel size, wheel stud size and material. For an 8-inch wheel with a 1/2-inch wheel stud the torque is 75 to 86 ft-lbs. For a 15 inch steel wheel with 1/2 inch wheel studs…
