Dexter Axle Trailer Hubs and Drums - Hub with Integrated Drum - 8-257-5UC3-EZ Review Video

Since the Torflex number 9 axle is a 2,000 lb capacity axle and I was able to determine that your Little Guy Meerkat Trailer has wheels that have a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern the correct hub/drums you'd need to add brakes would be the Dexter…

The 3,500 pound hubs #84655UC1 use bearings #L68149 and #L44649 which are for a #84 spindle. A #84 spindle has the following measurements: A 1.75 inches B 1.73 inches C 1.38 inches D 1.06 inches E 1.00 inches If your current spindles have the same…

The width of the #AKHD-545-35-EZ-K that you referenced that comes in at 2-1/4 inches is the width where the shoe would touch the drum. If yours overall is 2-5/8 inches including the backing plate then this is the correct fit. I attached a picture…

First things first; you can determine the specs on your current axle by checking for a sticker or plate attached to the axle itself (you'll usually find it close to the center of the axle). But with that being said, in the event that you…

I called Dexter and they told me that your Dexter P-12 SLR SN: D5287869 axle has a 3,000 lb weight capacity. If you need any parts please let me know what they are and I would be happy to offer my recommendation.

The Dexter 69-46 axle has a straight spindle with #L44649 bearings. For a replacement spindle you can use the BTR E-Z Lube Spindle for 2,000-lb Trailer Axles #TRU44FR. Then for an idler hub, the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 2K Axles…

It looks like you're likely trying to replace your hubs/drums on your Dexter axle and I do believe that the "0100" you found on the spec plate actually reads "D100" since that was one of the models that Dexter had for this…

The Atwood Brake Actuator AT82543 referenced in your question is compatible with any trailer that has hydraulic drum brakes. Uni-servo wheel cylinders are found on certain hydraulic brake assemblies. If an assembly has them, this basically means that…

A BT8 spindle would have a diameter of .99 of an inch where the bearings would both install and would have a diameter of 1.24 where the great seal would ride. That would require a hub part #AKIHUB-440-2-1K for an idler hub. A BTR spindle would have…

There are many things that can affect the voltage on the brake output wire from your brake controller to your trailer brakes such as the power setting on your brake controller, how you are testing the wire and if you are testing it with the brakes or…

Knowing the inside diameter of the drum is the key piece of information we need; the brand of the assembly will not be a factor in determining what you will need to replace your hydraulic brakes. You mentioned your trailer's GVW, but it is the…

Hubs and drums that can be turned (machined) will have a specification on how much they can be turned cast into the metal of the drum somewhere. Otherwise it is at the brake shop's discretion. Drums do not have to be turned unless there is some…
