Parts Needed to Add Brakes and Suspension Enhancement to 3,500 lb Trailer Axle
Question:
I have an axle on my cargo trailer that is not equipped with electric brakes and would like to replace it with one that does. I will attach a picture of label on the axle to help with the ion of the proper axle to replace this one. I also want to move the new axle to an under spring configuration from the existing over spring. While doing this change out is it possible to get a 6 bolt wheel pattern to match the 2021 Toyota Tacoma wheel pattern? I may also want to add a bump stop device to keep the spring from bottomming out. I know this is asking a lot at one time but I figure it would be easier to change it all out once while the old axle is coming off. Can you point me in the right direction for what I will need based on the PN on the label I am attaching. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Expert Reply:
We aren't able to help with an axle replacement as we don't have the dimension axle you need. But we can help with the axle you have now. To add brakes you just need to replace the hubs with hub/drums like the # AKHD-655-35-EZ-K and brake assemblies # AKEBRK-35-SA. This has the 6 bolt pattern you are wanting.
Then to move the axles in relation to the leaf springs you'd just need the part # K71-384-00 and you'd be set.
Then for suspension support you'd want the part # SS33HR and you'd be set.
