Al - 09/25/2021Wonderful service, exact replacement, delivered promptly!
Superb service. All items were packaged and shipped shortly after order was confirmed. Parts were received on time and well packaged. Currently at shop to be installed.
East to install and adjust. Once on the road broke in easily and they do a great job stopping my toy hauler.
First shipment of two 23-105, and two 23-106 arrived with grease contamination soaked into the lining on two assemblies and impact damage to the lining on a third. etrailer shipped three replacements promptly. Sticker on carton said "quality checked by Alex G. Perhaps Alex should find another line of work.
My major issue however is that after installing these I had to crank the power on my controller to maximum to achieve any helpful braking and can't even come close to wheel lockup which you need to adjust properly. I noticed that the new magnets were oval shaped unlike my old ones which were longer and flat on top and bottom (like the magnets pictured on the 7000lb assemblies). I assumed the style had simply changed since my magnets were made and I had no reason to look at 7000lb brakes as my axles are tagged 4400lb. All instructions on etrailer site state to select the brakes by the weight of your trailer which in my case is 9000lbs. Surely four 6000lb brake assemblies would be overkill..WRONG! My axles are 7000lb "de-rated" to 4400 but they obviously had 7000lb brakes. This caveat has caused me to install the wrong brake assemblies! If you are replacing your brakes and wish to duplicate your stopping power, do NOT listen the the "expert" answers on here. Compare the shape of the magnets. These small oval magnets are not as strong and braking will suffer. I still feel as though I should be able to achieve wheel lockup with these but not the case and since they have now been used, I can not return them.
Patrick B - 10/14/2015I checked here locally on the cost of trailer brake shoes and magnets and found the price of etrailers' complete brakes and magnets assembled on a new backplate was by far less expensive. After removing the drum, this meant near zero labor, just five nuts to remove and replace the backplate then splice the wires. And another BIG plus, free shipping on an over thirty pound shipment. Wow so easy...And now I have all new brakes, magnets and all the other parts too, just seems to good to be true. I will continue to tell everyone about this labor saving and great priced product. Thank you etrailer.com.
Edward S - 04/12/2020The product is good but the packaging was insufficient and it arrived damaged. I was able to source a replacement from elsewhere and just never had time to follow up...
I bought a used toy boxa and quickly found out that the breaks were mowed down. I had trip planned to Yellowstone so, I needed these fast. They showed up on time and were the right part. I put them on drive from SoCal to Yellowstone which is 1500 miles. I re-adjust the break one morning in Yellowstone and haven’t looked back. Thank you Etrailer.com!!!! Here is a picture of my trailer in Idaho. We camped here one night before we got to Yellowstone.
This was just what I needed to upgrade the brakes on my trailer and very easy instructions
Great replacements
I was replacing the brakes on a 72 Airstream Argosy and needed a magnet but found out I could get whole new assemblies for $2.00 more! That's a deal! Just make sure if your backing plates have attached studs that you pick up the necessary grade 5 or 8 bolts, nuts and lock washers too.
I replaced the electric brakes on my dump trailer, and bought the Dexter 6000 lb set, fully assembled and ready to bolt on. They fit perfectly and are of the quality that I expected for American made products. I am very happy with my purchase.
Been a year, so far so good!
The new brakes work well on my trailer. However, when I replace them next time I will spend the extra $$ to get the self adjusting version.
I am writing this very favorable review of my online shopping experience with etrailer. Recently I had to replace the brakes, hubs, wheels and tires on my travel trailer. Please keep in mind that I am a 65 year old man without a lot of experience with online shopping. Never-the-less, I decided to give it a try in hopes of saving some money. To my surprise, etrailer made the experience very easy and painless. Before I placed my order on line, I had a question about one of the items on my shopping list, so I placed a call to them. I spoke with a very lovely and patient Customer Service Representative by the name of Michelle S. She was very helpful in answering my questions and encouraged me to call her back directly when I was ready to place my order; and so I did. During the shipping process, she kept me informed through emails the status of my order and everything arrived on time and in great shape. I truly appreciate the personalized services I received doing business with etrailer. They truly removed all of the uncertainty and nervousness of shopping online.
Best value for genuine Dexter parts
Less work than buying all the parts separately. Parts came in good physical condition. However, on 1 of the 4 assemblies, the adjuster and adjuster spring was loose in the packaging but was easily made whole.
EXCELLENT...... START TO FINISH. Fantastic service, great prices, quality products. Here's a before and after picture. It only took 30 minutes and basic tools to make the replacement. So much better than trying to clean up the old rusty one. Thanks again, Bill Borland in Michigan
These parts were made by Dexter and were an exact replacement for my Dexter axles.
Well built not goodvto put everything in one box ups destroyed the box parts were all there . Yea
Easy assembly...
