Dexter Axle Brake Actuator - Electric-Hydraulic Brake Actuator - K71-651 Review Video

First, make sure that the adapter #T48456000, is wired into the input wires on the BrakeRite EHB. White to white and blue to blue. The adapter is simulating the load of brake magnets so that the brake controller thinks there are just electric…

The pump should come on when you hit the brakes with your Dexter EOH system. I hope you have the Dexter #K71-651 for disc brakes versus the #K71-650 you asked from which will not work with disc brakes because it won't provide enough pressure.…

The 052-003-00 number on your current shock is the part number from Dexter Axle. We don't carry the direct replacement but if the specs match for the Lippert Standard Replacement Shock #LC283271 and the axle this is being applied to is a…

I have attached a chart you can check out that describes the torque needed per wheel size, wheel stud size and material. For an 8-inch wheel with a 1/2-inch wheel stud the torque is 75 to 86 ft-lbs. For a 15 inch steel wheel with 1/2 inch wheel…

Trailer brakes can be either self-adjusting like the Dexter #23-468 or may require periodic manual adjustments like #23-27, depending on the particular model assemblies you have installed on the trailer. An easy way to tell if you have self-adjusting…

The battery you use for a break away system needs to be able to power the trailer brakes on full for 15 minutes. A 12 volt battery rated for 5 amp hours is normally used, unless you have 3 axles each with brakes, then you would benefit more from a 9…

We recommend 10 gauge wire for the brake output circuit on a trailer like part #10-1-1 which is sold by the foot. I also attached a picture that shows how tandem axle brake assemblies should get wired up.

I would recommend Dexter Torflex axles the highest for torsion axles. And then put Al Ko and Lippert at about the same in quality. I was searching around online and the common consensus among the trailering forums is that the Dexter axles are…

The reverse lockout solenoids stop brake fluid from being released from the master cylinder and sent to the wheel cylinder. It does this by receiving an electric signal, usually from the reverse light circuit. That said, if you were to wire this into…

The correct replacement master cylinder kit we have for your Demco setup is the part #DM5918 which comes with the lock out replacement.
