• What is the Difference Between Dexter Trailer Brake Assemblies # 23-105-09 and # 23-105
  The difference is the mounting pattern. The Dexter # 23-105-09, brake assembly that you have referenced will mount to either an AL-KO/Hayes 4 bolt or a standard 5 bolt mounting flange. The # 23-105 just fits the standard 5 bolt pattern. Otherwise the specs are the same: 12 inch by 2 inch 6,000 pound axles Manual adjust Left hand side

• Trailer Brake Magnets Won't Activate With Proper Voltage To Them
