Review of Deka Wiring - Jacketed 14 Guage 7 Wire Cable - DK74FR Video

Trailer wiring generally uses 16 gauge wire, part #16-1-1. However, with a long trailer like yours you may want to go with a larger like 14 gauge #DW07550-1 or even 12 gauge #12-1-1. Each size is sold by the foot. You will need to have the lights at…

The K568251 shoes and lining are actually for ALKO 12-1/4 x 3-1/2 inch brake assemblies so they will not fit if yours are 12 x 2 inch brakes. From what I was able to find you should need replacement brake shoe and lining #BP04-185. This is for one…

That's a very good question, we tend to be extra cautious and say to use 10 gauge wire because that would be more than enough. When you get into longer trailers that will end up using a lot of wire the heavier gauge wire becomes more necessary.…

The maximum hub bore measurement for the 5,200 LB or 6,000 LB Dexter hub and drum assembly #8-201-5UC3-EZ is 3.622 inches. So a wheel with center bore of 3-3/4 inches would fit.

If the outer diameter of the hub center section that fits through the wheel is larger than the wheel pilot hole then the parts are not going to fit together. If the center hole on the wheel is larger, it will not matter unless the wheel is centered…

In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.

Using a hitch extender is safe as long as you stay within the limits specified of 50 percent of the hitch and vehicle load capacity, and 350 lb tongue weight capacity of part #HE06. The other option to provide additional clearance from your spare…

We do have an option to monitor the battery power level, but this will just have the one function, unfortunately. With that being said, the CTEK Battery-Health Indicator Cable w/ Panel Box #CTEK56380 will have the standard green (good), yellow (needs…

You can indeed test a trailer's electric drum brakes by directly applying +12V power from a fully-charged battery. You can apply this power to the hot and ground contacts on the trailer's plug (see photo please) or to an individual brake…
