Dexter Axle Trailer Brakes - Electric Drum Brakes - K23-086-087-00 Review Video

Even though I cannot comment specifically on the grease you used because I am not familiar with it, I can tell you the best grease for trailer bearings is a a grease with a rating of GC-LB, which just means it is made to withstand very high…

I'm glad you asked. Our etrailer brand brakes are holding up very well. We actually have an agreement with the same company who manufacture's Lippert's OEM brake assemblies, so our brakes are exactly the same as the brakes…

There are only a handful of brake assemblies that have the provisions to add a parking brake and #AKEBRK-35 or #AKEBRK-35-SA do not have that feature. Dexter electric brake assembly kit #K23-086-087-00 does have the ability to add a parking brake…

What you have is an 86" long axle with a 4,400 lb capacity. Since 4,400 lb axles are no longer being produced, you will need an axle with a higher capacity for a replacement. I recommend the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles #e45GR.…

The studs on the Electric Brake Kit #AKEBRK-35-SA are separated 2-13/16" on center vertically and horizontally. I have included an image below showing the measurement points. These attach using the Mounting Hardware #BRKH10B.

It sounds like you may be wanting to replace just the coupler portion of the actuator. Typically the best option for a surge brake actuator with a bad coupler, is to replace the entire actuator. To replace just the coupler, I would need to know the…

The Electric Trailer Brake Kit part #AKEBRK-7-SA does not come with the hub/drum. In order to find the correct hub/drums we are going to need to know your bearing numbers or measurements. We would also need to know the bolt pattern of your wheels. I…

I'll start off by saying that when it comes to wheels that are rated for the weight of your trailer and are 15" wheels with a 5 on 4.5 bolt pattern, we have a very limited selection of wheels that have a +0.5 offset (which is the largest…

The use of Lock N Roll Articulating Trailer Hitch for 2" Receivers #336VS501 does not add sway to the setup. Couplers normally can articulate to the left and right like what this allows so it would not be any more prone to sway than a ball style…

The only sort of protection we offer for wire leads such as those on the 25 Ft 5-Way Trailer Wiring Harness part #A25W5B would be wire loom, the 3/8" Diameter Wire Loom part #39035. This can be used to cover the length of wire on the tongue or…

Typically, you want between 16" and 24" of wire to extend past the trailer tongue but it really depends on your particular vehicle and the location of the trailer plug on your vehicle. You want enough wire so that there is not tension on…

The only 10" electric trailer braking assemblies we offer with a parking brake is the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit part #K23-086-087-00 and these are indeed manual adjust. We don't offer any self-adjust with parking brake at this time…
