I am happy to say that my Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly is working great. I especially appreciate how easy the installation was. My originals got really fried and left me with no trailer brakes going over the mountains.

Genuine Dexter parts at very reasonable prices with free shipping at certain $$$ levels. Excellent part discriptions with accurate & precise pictures. Quick shipping, excellent refund policy just be sure to keep original packaging until sure about part being correct. etrailer is my 1st choice for parts for my trailers or towing accessories.
by: Ken12/30/2021
Works as expected, easy to install. The assemblies should be packed better. Some of the parts were damaged because the heavy drums bounced around and damaged it.

Received product today and it was packed in a very protective, sturdy container. There was excellent communication with Etrailer during the procurement process. I won't be unpacking the items for a bit but I'm very confident everything will be OK. You know, that gut feeling kind of thing. Thank you Etrailer.

I called an order in for one of our customers who needed a brake assembly ASAP. I had to have it overnighted. I got it the next morning, and it was exactly what we needed. I have ordered from Etrailer many times and have ALWAYS had prompt, courteous, and professional service. I recommend them highly and of course I will continue to order from them in the future!

Received exactly what I ordered in a very timely manner. Products were packed very well for shipping. Excellent service and great communication from the initial order all the way through to the final delivery. These folks know how to do business right and are great to do business with! Purchased these to have on hand to replace RV brakes when traveling. Had 2 brake sets break on our last trip and it cost us a lot of down time.

He trailer had the hard to get part that I was unable to obtain locally. I initially gave them an undeliverable address and they contacted me right away to get a better shipping address. Shipping was quite prompt.

Broke down on the side of the road. Manufactured told me $1,000 and two weeks for this part. A trailer had it overnighted, for a third of the cost !!!

Can’t say enough nice things about the understanding and help I received after ordering the wrong brake assembly. In just a few minutes on the phone I had a return label and the correct part on its way. Excellent teamwork etrailer.

- Dexter Self-Adjusting Electric Brakes for a Dexter 4400 Pound Trailer AxleI have included a picture that shows the mounting pattern for Dexter brake assembly # K23-478-00 so you can compare it to your existing brakes. From what I could find these are the correct brakes for your trailer. The matching right side is # K23-479-00.

- Can Self-Adjusting Brake Shoes Be Used On Manual-Adjusting Dexter Brake Assembly?I do not recommend using the self adjusting brake pads for your manual adjust brake assembly as they are not designed to be used together. If you want the self adjusting setup then you will want to go with Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - 10" - Left Hand - 4,400 lbs # K23-478-00 and Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly - 10" - Right Hand - 4,400 lbs # K23-479-00. If you want to keep you current Dexter Electric Brake Assembly 10" - Right Hand # K23-463-00...
view full answer... - New Brake Assemblies for Komfort Travel Trailer 23T24If you do have 10 inch brakes, I recommend the etrailer.com 10 Inch Self Adjusting Electric Brake Assembly # AKEBRK-35R-SA, # AKEBRK-35L-SA. The mounting flange has a 4 bolt pattern. These brakes automatically adjust as the brake pads wear so you do not have to manually adjust the brakes. I have attached a review video of these brakes for you. We also offer manual adjust brakes, such as etrailer.com 10 Inch Electric Trailer Brake Assembly # AKEBRK-35R and # AKEBRK-35L. These assemblies...
view full answer... - Axle and Suspension Replacement for 2011 Keystone Outback 260FLThat is correct, replacement axles are going to be your best bet since those axles and most parts are discontinued. You don't want to go down in capacity so you're looking at moving to 5,200 lb replacement axles. In order to find the correct replacement you want to match your current axle length and if possible the spring seat measurement. The length is going to be the hub face to hub face measurement. See the video below which explains where and how to measure. If the spring seats don't...
view full answer... - Replacement Brakes, Bearings & Seals for AL-KO 4400-lb Axles on 5-Year-Old Tandem Axle RVThe # K23-478-00 and # K23-479-00 Dexter brake assemblies you mentioned are not compatible with your AL-KO T-44 axle. According to my contact at Dexter (AL-KO was acquired by them), the replacement brake assemblies for your AL-KO axle are now obsolete as they have been discontinued. The only option is to replace the axles on your RV. Since we don't carry any 4,400 lb axles, the closest rated axle we have (that would also match the 6 on 5-1/2 wheel bolt pattern found on the T-44 hubs)...
view full answer... - Brake Assembly Recommendation for a 2004 Keystone Cougar 285 Camper TrailerI did some research on your 2004 Keystone Cougar and it looks like it's a tandem axle trailer with a dry weight of 7,340 lbs. Keystone almost always uses Dexter axles so the correct brake assemblies should be 4,400 lb rated 10 x 2-1/4 inch brake assemblies like the part # K23-478-00 for the left hand side and part # K23-479-00 for the right hand side. Or if you measure the diameter of your assemblies and they are 12 inches you would instead need the part # 23-459 for the right hand side...
view full answer... - Torque Specs of Mounting Flange Bolts on Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer BrakesI spoke with a representative of Dexter who told me that the 4 mounting flange bolts on the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly # K23-478-00 (left hand) and # K23-479-00 (right hand) who was unable to confirm the specific torque specs of these assemblies. However, based on similar assemblies from Dexter we do know that in the past the recommended torque is between 45-70 foot lbs.
view full answer... - Picking Out Trailer Brake Assemblies that Have Bolt Pattern 2-7/8 inch by 2-7/8 inchThe 2-7/8 inch square bolt pattern that you need is a very common bolt pattern for 4-bolt brake assemblies that are 10 inch in diameter. The # 23-454 that you referenced uses a smaller bolt pattern at 2-13/16 inch by 2-13/16 inch which was common for brake assemblies made before 2009. The # K23-478-00 that you also referenced does not use a square bolt pattern at all so what you'd really be in need of is # 23-27 for the right hand side and # 23-26 for the left hand side.

- Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet for Dexter Electric Brake AssembliesYes, it will! The Replacement Trailer Brake Magnet for Dexter Electric Brake Assemblies item # BP01-225 works with 4,400 lbs Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assemblies like item # K23-478-00 or item # K23-479-00.
view full answer... - What Is The Axle Capacity On 35 Ft Camper With 16 Inch Tires And 8 Bolt RimsYour KZ 35 ft camper should have a plate or sticker on it that will list the VIN number. The weight rating of the axle should be listed on that plate or sticker. Also, the axle could have a tag or plate on it that will list the weight capacity. If you can locate the VIN, you can call the manufacturer to find out what the axles capacity is on your camper. Another way to determine the weight capacity is by measuring the diameter of the axle. Here is a list that will show the axle weight...
view full answer... - Parts Needed to Replace Hydraulic Drum Trailer Brakes with Electric Drum Trailer BrakesThe 10x2-3/4 measurement on brakes is in reference to what drums they fit, not the mounting pattern. The 2-3/4 inch measurement you are getting is indicative of 10x2-1/4 inch brakes like # K23-478-00 that you have referenced. To measure for the size brake assembly you need you will measure the inner diameter of the drum and the width (both where the shoes/linings make contact with the drum). The matching right hand side brake assembly is # K23-479-00. But if you have 3,500 pound axles...
view full answer... - Can the Dexter 4.4K Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes Be Purchased IndividuallyYes, the Dexter 4.4K Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit part # K23-478-479 can be broken down into the right side part # K23-479-00 and left side part # K23-478-00.
view full answer... - Can I Replace 235/80-16 Tires with 235/85-16 Tires on a TrailerIt is best to have at least 4-1/2 inches of clearance between your trailer tire's tread and the underside of the trailer/fender. Of this 4-1/2 inches, 3 inches is directly for tire clearance and the additional 1-1/2 inches is for defection of the suspension. Typically, ST235/80-16 size tires have an overall diameter of 30.9 inches. For ST235/85-16 size tires, the overall diameter is increased to 31.6 inches. Moving up a tire size will bring your tire tread approximately 3/8 of an inch...
view full answer... - Comparing Dexter and etrailer Self-Adjusting Electric Trailer BrakesBrake assembly # K23-478-00 is a Nev-R-Adjust assembly. Like you said it is rated for 4,400 so it has a bigger magnet than a 3,500 pound assembly would have. The etrailer self-adjusting assembly is # AKEBRK-35L-SA rated for 3,500 pounds. One of the biggest differences besides price and capacity is the pad material. On the Dexter assembly the pad material is snapped off of a long strip of the material. On the etrailer assembly the material is actually cut. What happens when it is snapped...
view full answer... - Brake Assembly Replacement Recommendation for K71-125-00For an exact replacement for the assemblies of your trailer you would want the part # K23-478-00 for the left hand side and part # K23-479-00 for the right hand side. Brake assemblies are not what you'll use to make your braking more aggresive. For that you'd want to increase the gain setting of your brake controller as that's how you adjust the braking power higher.
view full answer... - Recommended Trailer Brakes for 2006 Bigfoot 21 FT Travel TrailerFrom the research that I have done it looks like a 21 ft Bigfoot is going to weigh about 4000 lbs so I am going to assume that it has 4400 lb axles. Since there is a very good chance that it has the 10 inch x 2-1/4 inch brake assemblies, you could use the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Brake Assemblies, # K23-478-00 for left hand and # K23-479-00 for right hand. Unfortunately a collective OEM trailer parts catalog does not exist, so the best way to determine what parts you will need is...
view full answer... - Does the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly Kit for 4,400 Lb Axles Come with HubsThe Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly Kit part # K23-478-479 or part # K23-478-00 for left and part # K23-479-00 for right does not come with a hub/drum. If this is needed you can use the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # 84546UC3-EZ as most 4,400 b axles use 3,500 lb hubs/drums.
view full answer... - Availability of Electric Drum Trailer Brakes with 4-Bolt Mounting FlangeTrailer brakes should be selected based on the axle weight rating to ensure they have the correct stopping power. All of our electric drum brakes that are rated for 5200-lb axles are the 12 x 2-inch size and use a 5-bolt mounting flange. We do have 4-bolt electric brakes in the 10 x 2-1/4-inch size that are rated for 4400- and 3500-lb-rated axles, such as # K23-478-00. You can see all of these on the linked page.

- Replacement Brake Shoes for Roadmaster Tow DollyThe Roadmaster Tow Dolly # RM-2050-1 uses the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Assembly # K23-479-00 and # K23-478-00. For the replacement brake shoes, you will want the right hand side # K71-699-00 and left hand side # K71-698-00.
view full answer... - Will 10 Gauge Wire Fit Inside Axle Tubes For Powering Brake Assemblies? Yes, you can use 10 Gauge Wire # 10-1-1 to route through your axles to power your Electric Brakes # K23-478-00 Do be sure the Grommet # 046-124-00 is in place on your axle tube to prevent the wire from fraying entering the axle tube.
view full answer... - Replacement 4,400 lb Hub Drum for Trailer AxleWe do have a replacement hub/drum for a 4,400 lb axle with the part # 8-407-5UC3-EZ which works with the brake assemblies part # K23-478-00 for the left hand side and part # K23-479-00 for the right hand side.
view full answer... - Is There a Difference Between Brake Assembly Kit and Individual Brake Assemblies for 4,400 lb AxleThere is no difference between buying the brake assemblies individually or as a kit with the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Left and Right Hand Assemblies # K23-478-479. Prices have to do with things like demand, and some people only need individual assemblies, so the prices can be different because technically they are different part numbers. But to get to the heart of your question, you can absolutely order the brakes individually and there is no difference. - Dexter...
view full answer... - Replacement 10x2-1/4 Inch Electric Trailer BrakesThe mounting studs on trailer brake assembly # K23-478-00 are 7/16 inch requiring the 7/16 inch nut # 6-17. You would also want to use lock washer # 5-8. This is a standard size for 10x2-1/4 inch brakes. The outer diameter of the nuts is larger of course so it is not surprising that the wrench you used was larger.
view full answer... - Electric Brake Assembly Compatibility with T-44 4,400 lb AL-KO AxlesThe AL-KO company was bought out by Dexter, so he may have been thinking Dexter axles which the # K23-478-00 and # K23-479-00 would fit with the 4 bolt mounting pattern. The K23-538-00 and K23-539-00 are the correct ones for the AL-KO T-44 axle, as you mentioned but they have been discontinued. The only option is to replace the axle(s). Depending on the hub face and spring center dimensions of your existing axle and wheel bolt pattern, we may have what you need. I have included a link...

I have had new brakes on my rockwood mini light for a year now. I have about 10,000 miles on them and they are still working like new. I could not be happier with them.
