Video Transcript for A Closer Look at the Mounting Nut for 7" and 10" Brake Assemblies

Today we're going to review part number 6-17. This is the mounting nut for the 7/16th size mounting bolt for seven and ten inch brake assemblies. Now this is a size 7/16ths by 20. That means the diameter of the bolt used on this is 7/16ths and the 20 means 20 threads per inch on the bolt. This nut is to be used with the .. we do sell that bolt separately.

It's part number 7-75. This is the 7/16ths brake mounting bolt that's used on the seven and ten inch brake assemblies. We do sell this separately. It is listed on the product page for the nut as a related product. Basically as you can see, that's designed to screw onto the bolt.

Another piece that you need to use with these pieces, we also sell separately and it's listed on the product page as a related product, is the lock washer for the 7/16ths bolt. That's part number 5-8. So basically, the lock washer would go on and then you use your nut. Just to give you an idea of the heads size on this nut, it does use a .. here's a 11/16ths socket and you can see that it's designed to fit in the 11/16ths socket and is used to tighten down or loosen this nut.

That should do it for the review on part number 6-17. This is the mounting nut for the 7/16ths bolt that fits the seven inch and ten inch brake assemblies.

it is a nut do you need more



by:

Good quality.



by:

5*



by:

Good clean threads, Perfect for new brake installations!



by:

Fast shipping, great quality products and the best prices anywhere. etrailer did it again.



by:

Nuts were doubled bagged in box as to not get lost and went on great with loctite. Other than that what can you say about a nut. I would recommend new nuts every time you remove the brake assy. It is cheap insurance.



by:

I used eight of these installing electric brakes on a dexter 2k axle. etrailer's service/delivery was extremely fast with the free shipping on orders over $150. I would buy again from etrailer.



by:

Products are great and service was excellent. The packaging for the hubs was too light. By the time they got to me some of the boxes had holes and a couple parts were missing.. Etrailer very promptly sent me replacement parts.



by:

I don't remember the exact products I bought a year ago, except that it was an electric brake controller and a complete electric brake assembly. They've been working great, and etrailer has lived up to my expectations.

by:

Needed to convert my wave runner trailer over to have brakes being I was going to tow it behind my 5th wheel. These guys set me up with everything I needed. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff. I also bought my 5th wheel hitch from them and they are by far the lowest on price and if not will match and adjust your bill. Wouldn't go anywhere else !



by:

So far, so good! The components arrived very quickly and in good shape via UPS. This morning I've installed both electric brake assemblies and now need to finish the electrical hookup which will be the easy part. My only concern is that there were no rubber plugs (4 grommets) to seal the brake shoe adjustment holes in the backside of the mounting plate. A view of the plate on your website shows these plugs.
I am installing these brakes on a custom built 6' X 12' cargo trailer which sees a lot of travel up and down mountain highways. Looking forward to finding out how they perform.



by:

Hydraulic trailer drum brakes. Received within a few days. Easy to install, not that complicated. Needed a second person to help bleed the brakes.



by:

The 6-17 nuts for the four bolt brake mounting flange are an excellent replacement on my 1997 Coleman Fleetwood Bayports popup camper that I am close to finishing a restoration process on. They fit perfectly! Very happy to purchase an excellent product from the fastest shipper I have ever come across. I am blown away by the professionalism with this company!
Thanks



by:

I needed some brakes for my boat so I went back to my old reliable. One more excellent experience. I was missing some mounting hardware and they sent me replacements ASAP. Got the part and got em installed. Thanks etrailer team!

God Bless



by:

Bought 4 trailer brake assemblies with hardware. Assemblies looked great and assembled on axles with no problems. I thought I ordered lock washers with the hardware but they didn't come with. Packaging was good, nothing damaged in shipping.



by:

Bought several items and the SERVICE and the PRICE were far superior to other Internet sites - and even local RV Centers!!
I HIGHLY RECOMMEND etrailer and Renee K. She is very knowledgeable and helpful, made good recommendations.
My purchases were smooth - and the products were the exact same quality and brand I could buy in Syracuse (at twice the price).



by:

Simply the best. Best price, best quality and easy to install. Also there are great videos etrailer has for installation of most of their parts. Dont waste your time shopping around. These gutd have the best price. Thanks guys



by:

I read other customers reviews about the break setup not having these nuts and lock washers included. Good thing I ordered them with my order. My original nuts were rusted solid to the backing plate studs. I had to grind off the studs from the front of the break plate because there was no room from the back. The item worked as described. Make sure you put never seize on the studs before putting the nuts on. It will save you a lot of sweat and tears in the future. 2003 Jayco Kiwi 23b



by:

Ordering was easy, brakes arrived when expected, I didn't realize I needed 4 adjustment plugs as old backing plates only used one apiece.
Brakes work great and if I figure out how to transfer and send pictures I took I will. Thanks for satisfying experience etrailer.



by:

The ordering was simple, the price was excellent and the product (dexter electric drum brakes) was as advertised, and is woking perfectly. Thanks etrailer for being there when I needed you.



by:

The brake assemblies I received seem to be just fine. They were a good fit on my trailer. Haven't completed the job yet to try the brakes out, but they look great. All my other parts were correct and very well packaged. I really appreciate the great customer service. These guys seem to really care.



by:

I bought for these brake assemblies. Installation was straight forward and after a year of use and about 3500 miles, they spray to be performing well. My only concern is one of the four occasionally sticks which heats up that wheel. Backing up a short distance seems to release it, but I'd like to feel more confident that it's working correctly.



by:

All the brake parts that I ordered were there and on time. The videos were a nice complement to the installation instructions. They are working fine .



by:

I bought this to go with the brake/backing plate I ordered. easier to get it delivered with other parts than to go searching while replacing the brakes.



by:

Thalinks for my 10k electric brakes that I recieved 2 days after I ordered, and had installed them on my 40' gooseneck. They look just as good as the Dexter's I orders last time which cost me almost double.
I will be ordering from etrailer from now on.

    The difference between the Titan Galphorite Uni-Servo Hydraulic Trailer Brake Assembly part # T4445300, and the Titan Galphorite Free-Backing Hydraulic Trailer Brake Assembly part # T4423500, is that that part # T4423500 is a Free-Backing brake assembly.

  • Trailer Brakes Recommendations for a 3,500 lbs Boat Trailer Axle
    You have the standard brake mounting flanges on your axle. If you want to get really technical, the bolt holes should actually measure about 1/16 larger than 2-3/4. That is the standard dimension for 3,500 lb axles. If you are looking for hydraulic brake assemblies, I strongly recommend the 10 Inch Free-Backing Dacromet Brake Assemblies, # AKFBBRK-35L-D for the left hand and # AKFBBRK-35R-D for the right hand. Free-backing brakes will not lock up when you are backing up the trailer and...

  • Adding Electric Brakes To Utility Trailer With 3,500 LB Axle Towed With 2006 Volkswagen Jetta
    I have attached a helpful article you can check out that shows all of the components needed to add electric brakes. You will need several items to add electric brakes to your Carry-On Utility trailer. Starting with the trailer you will need a hub and drum that matches the bearings and seal on your trailer spindle and your wheel bolt pattern. The only way to be sure is to check the bearing part numbers and seal part number, but with a 3,500 lbs Dexter axle that has brake mounting flanges...

  • Spring Seats and Nut Coupling Available Separately for Over-Under Conversion Kit
    Hello! I am a bit confused by the question, but I believe you are saying you are going to be using the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-384-00 on your trailer and want to know about the availability of spring seats and spacer nuts, correct? If so you do not need to purchase those separately because they come with the kit already. If you were asking about piecing together this kit, there are individual components available: - Spring Seat for Typical 3,500-lb, Round...

  • Converting Existing Hydraulic Brake System to Electric on Pop-Up Camper
    The Dexter Hub/ Drum you mentioned, part # 8-173-16UC3 would be a proper replacement for you as long as the inner and outer bearings in your existing hubs are # L44649, the grease seal is # 10-9 and the 4-on-4 bolt pattern matches up with your existing hubs. Your existing bearings and grease seals should have reference numbers stamped on them, make sure the numbers on the existing parts match those of the replacements.

  • Converting 3500 lb Axle from Idler Hubs to Electric Brakes
    The brake mounting flanges, whether they be 4 or 5 bolt, have a standard hole spacing to fit their appropriate brake assembly. No worries about the brake assembly matching with the existing one on your axle. A 3500 lb axle like what you have will use a 4 bolt flange. You will need to get the numbers that are stamped on your existing bearings, in order to confirm the fit of the # 84557UC3. Your current bearings will need to match the bearings of the replacement hub. The # 84557UC3 uses...

  • Adding Electric Drum Brakes to a Scamp Camper Trailer
    Setting up a trailer with electric drum brakes is going to be the easier and most cost effective way of adding brakes to your Scamp trailer. Since the trailer already has the mounting flanges that will limit the amount of parts and work that will need to be done. Starting with the hub and drum assemblies since your bearings are both L44649 and you have an EZ Lube style axle you would need # 8-257-5UC3-EZ with the 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern. They are designed for 2,000 pound axles but will...

  • Replacement Hub/ Drums, Brake Assemblies and Tires for 2003 Trail-Lite Travel Trailer
    The Hub and Drum assembly you referenced, part # 84546UC3 has the same casting number on it, so it is most likely the correct replacement for you. I would recommend looking at your existing bearings to confirm a match. If the existing bearings you have are # L68149 inner and # L44649 outer, these are the correct replacements. For electric brake assemblies, use # 23-26 for the left side, and # 23-27 for the right. The mounting nuts, # 6-17 and lock washers, # 5-8 are not included. You...

  • Comparing Different Hydraulic Trailer Brakes for Boat Trailer
    Essentially yes, all of them will work for your trailer assuming you have 3,500 pound axles and a 4 bolt mounting flange. However, there are some differences between the brake assemblies you mentioned. The # AKFBBRK-35 are free-backing brakes, meaning they will not engage when reversing with your trailer. If your trailer has a reverse lockout on it then this feature is not necessary. They're coated with an e-coat used for corrosion resistance. The Demco brakes # 40716-15 are galvanized...
