12" x 2" Driver's-side electric trailer brake assembly fits 6,000-lb axles. Mounting flange has a 5-bolt pattern. Nev-R-Adjust brakes require little maintenance. Fits 14-1/2" to 16-1/2" wheels.I ordered a new electric brake assembly #23-458 and 12" drum kit #K08-201-98 for a 5200lb Dexter E-Z lube axle. All parts arrived on time and were correct. Ordering through Etrailer was fairly easy once I learned to navigate their site because there are a few variations to the parts I specifically needed for my axle. It helps if you have part numbers for your axle to compare with the ones on their site. I would liked to have had a place to enter my axle type, number, etc. and just have all the parts available for it displayed. Or perhaps an online chat page with a sales rep would be great too. All and all, I highly recommend and will definitely use Etrailer in the future.
Steve - 08/14/2022Emergency issues while traveling are never welcome, but I was pleased and impressed with the website, the phone in service I received from 2 very capable and helpful team members. Ordered products arrived on time and have been installed. Wheel, tire, and electric brake assembly match my original equipment. So Grateful I found you!
These went on very easy, and worked great right out of the box. It was nice to have them all match. I spliced them in a couple days before going on a 1,000+ mile vacation to Arizona. They've worked flawlessly (I check them to make sure they aren't hung up). This was just one headache eliminated for the trip by just getting new brakes instead of messing around with junky old ones. We've had the toyhauler out on several other trips also. I will purchase again if I need any for another trailer.
J.D. - 02/12/2018Replaced old non-self-adjusting trailer brake assemblies with new self-adjusting ones. See photos of old & new. TIP: Temporarily tape new wires out of the way to avoid pinching them between the axle flange and backing plate when mounting the new brake assemblies (ask me how I know).
Gene - 07/11/2016Only one small glitch,self adjusting cable was not installed properly on two of the brake assemblies.No big problem just had to redo brake assembly
Leonard - 05/29/2022Quick shipment, super easy to install. Remove 5 bolts, cut the wires and the old one comes off. Tighten 5 bolts, reconnect the wires and put the drum back on.
Steve - 08/17/2022Perfect replacement for my 24ft Hallmark trailer. Very easy to install, just bolt on and connect the wires. With the automatic adjustment there is nothing else to do! I recommend putting some extra anti-seize to be on the safe side (I had similar brakes seize up after a big winter in the North East). Also you will need 2 plugs per assembly to cover the adjustment holes (the brakes don't come with any plug and have 2 holes!)
I bought these brakes to replace the hydraulic brakes on my newly purchased (at DOD auction) M1102 trailer. The OEM eq was almost new (2010 model) but I wanted to remove the hydraulic surge brakes for electric. They are a perfect fit and easy to install. Would have been nice to have the dust covers for the back of the housing.
We put these never adjust brakes on after we removed the manual adjust brakes from our Cargo Trailer converted to a RV. We then installed the never adjust electric brakes and broke them in according to the instructions. We then started and completed a 19,400 mile trip from Florida to California then to Washington then to the UP of Michigan then to the Adirondack Mountains of NY and then back to Florida. We never had a problem with the brakes. We visited 17 National Parks, 7 state parks and numerous national forests. Great trip with no problems.
Excellent Service. Quick shipping. Correct brake assemblies.
My brake sets did not have the plastic adjusting plugs included. I had to purchase them separately at nearly $1 each. It appears they are now included.
Would I order from etrailer again. You bet your aluminum trailer, I will!
As always, etrailer is easy to work with and very prompt. Even when I ordered the wrong thing and had to cancel almost immediately, I was contacted by an etrailer representative who wanted to verify that I was canceling and re-ordering. Everything went well thanks again
Great, friendly service. Fast shipping. Easy installation.
Best thing about this brake kit is it's made in the USA. No hassle ordering and quick delivery. Did the front axle this month, doing rear axle next month.
Item: 23-458: This item Is a replacement for my 5th wheel camper. Do to the fact while traveling the brake did not release and failed on interstate I-40 late in the evening.The heat caused all the parts on the spindle to fail. The cost of replacing brakes, drum, bearing, seals, grease, plus service cost is Very Expensive after hours. Having these items on hand can save a lot of time and money.
Etrailer parts are top quality and best online price.
Thanks
Alan - 12/06/2017The electric trailer brakes arrive within three days of ordering. The parts were a perfect fit. Etrailer' support is second to none! Helpful videos and live support available. The four trailer brakes were $100.00 less expensive than the nearest competitor and free shipping too!
Could bot be happier with the service in getting the right brakes. Better service than my local trailer shops. Thank you!
changed out both sides with new; bearings, seals, outside dust caps, and adjusting electric brakes: 1. parts were as described and fit, 2. easy to install new ones, and 3.they have been working fine without any problem. Great videos.
Jim M - 11/22/2020Wanted to wait until after our most recent trip with our trailer before giving you the one year follow-up. Just pulled the trailer almost 1000 miles in the Rocky Mountains. The Nev-R-Adjust brakes & drums worked great and I felt very confident in their performance. I really appreciate not having to crawl under the trailer to adjust the brakes. All are good products and I would recommend them to all.
Great product and easy to install. Make sure you adjust the brake at installation and follow the brake in directions. After that they automatically adjust on their own. It’s nice not having to jack up the 5th wheel to manually adjust every 2000 miles as per the manufacturer. It’s also a good time to inspect your bearings and replace with American made bearings if needed. I did everything, brakes, bearings, grease seals and races. Be sure to use a good high temperature grease. Safe travels :)
I bought a trailer that had been home-fabricated using the axles from an old horse trailer. The axles had the remnants of electric trailer brakes, but the guts were missing. I was preparing to move from Pennsylvania to Montana, and intended to tow the trailer with a boat and some loose ends, and I wanted to have the security of brakes. Although I had never attempted to do an installation of this type, there were some helpful youtube videos to guide me. The installation went well, albeit slowly, mostly due to my inexperience, and the brakes proved to work well. The drive west was smooth, and the trailer has proved to be very useful out here. As far as I can tell, everything continues to work perfectly.
Installed these brakes on my Bobcat trailer. Use it at least once a week. Utilizing a Prodigy controller, also bought from etrailer, the trailer's braking is excellent, the control on down hills and turns is perfect. The installation was flawless, and simple. Redid the wiring, also bought from etrailer, while I was installing the new brakes and everything works as it should. Stops first time, every time. Thanks for great products, one stop shop and fantastic customer service.
These are well built, easy to install brake assemblies. I had to adjust them after installation as they would not self adjust as the video states. They will be great if they do auto adjust as they wear. Price was great and they arrived in three days after my order. I will buy all my trailer parts from etrailer in the future.
Gerald J - 01/07/2015Received the brakes within 4 days.. Finally got around to installing them on my 5th wheel. Nothing to it..perfect fit. Will order again from etrailer!!
Mark - 09/14/2016Great fast delivery
