Review of Dexter Axle Trailer Axles - Leaf Spring Suspension - 8327820-EB Video

I have a replacement axle option for you, but based on the information I was able to find on your AL-KO 4400lb Axle #402268 it uses an older style of braking assembly that was discontinued when AL-KO was bought out by Dexter. If the brakes on your…

If you still have the trailer manual, I would recommend checking that to see what the manufacturer of your trailer has set as the recommended torque specs for your hubs; a majority of the time, these issues are rooted in over/under tightening of the…

It is highly recommended that the spring seat be at minimum tack welded to the axle. There have been issues that have resulted from the seat not be welded to the axle. If you do not have access to a welder, I recommend taking the trailer to a local…

Yes, since you have a 1 inch d-ring on your off-road bumper and a Blue Ox tow bar you can use a D-ring adapter like the Blue Ox 1-inch D-ring adapter part #BX88358 and you'd be set.

I have a replacement option for you, but unfortunately the AL-KO braking assemblies #K23-538-00 and #K23-539-00 have been discontinued after AL-KO was bought out by Dexter. The best option would be to replace your current axle with one that uses…

We have a 10 ply trailer tire in the size 225/75R15 with the part #AM10303 but this is a trailer tire which you'd need to use on a trailer. You shouldn't use truck tires on a trailer as they are not rated for the vertical load that trailers…

The Kenda Karrier ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire - Load Range E, Part #AM10303 is rated at a max load of 2,830 lbs at 80 psi. Almost all tire manufacturers advise running tires fully inflated to the recommended PSI when the tires are cold. The only…

The Westlake ST225/75R15 Radial Trailer Tire w/ 15" Silver Mod Wheel - 6 on 5-1/2 - Load Range E #LHAW124 should be inflated to 80 psi when cold. It is great that you do use a TPMS like #TST-507-FT-4-C that monitors both tire pressure and…

To upgrade your axles to a 5,200 lb weight rating you'll have to swap out your 3,500 lb axles for 5,200 lb axles like part #e55SR that comes with electric brakes and has 95" hub-face and 80" spring-center measurements. Unfortunately you…

I have another option for you, but the CE Smith U-Bolt Kit #CE23003 you were looking at is designed for 1-3/4" springs and will not fit with your 2" wide springs. Instead you will need two of the U-Bolt plate #TRTP300200 per axle, and two…

If you have a round 3" diameter axle on your Spartan boat trailer then you are going to want to use the CE Smith U-Bolt Kit part #CE23003 which contains u-bolts that are 7" long x 3-1/8" wide x 3/8" diameter. The reason you need…
