Hi there - I am looking for the correct axles/brakes for a 1997 Sundowner Horse trailer. VIN XXX. I am not sure which I need 100. 3500lb torsion axles with mounting brackets. Brakes included or separate, not sure. Can you let me know what I need?

Expert Reply:
To replace the brakes and hub/drums on your 3,500 lb torsion axles you need the Electric Trailer Brake Kit # AKEBRK-35-SA and then either the hub/drum # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K for a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern or the hub/drum # AKHD-655-35-EZ-K for the 6 on 5-1/2" bolt pattern.
These are standard replacement parts for a 3,500 lb axle so I do recommend checking your bearings and seals to make sure these match up with your application. The hub/drums listed above use an L68149 inner bearing, an L44649 outer bearing, and a grease seal with a 1.719" ID and 2.565" OD. If this matches what you have then you're good to go!
