by:

Outstanding delevery of my order. I ordered on Sat. Free ground shipping and received the order today,Thursday. Now I can work on my camper this Sat. to get ready for the season. I'll send photos when I've installed the brakes.



by:

eTrailer's shipping was amazingly fast!
The brakes were a breeze to install. Make sure you purchase the nuts & lock washers to make it easier. **One note, if the posts are not flush with the inside of your hubs, you will need to purchase new ones. If it's not flush, it will hit the magnet. Other than that...it's simple. Good luck.



by:

Great product and great service byetrailer.com



by:

Only thing I'd add to the brake assembly would be new mounting nuts.

  • How to Know When Trailer Brake Magnets are Worn Out and Need Replacing
    Are there any visible signs of wear on the magnets like exposed windings then that would indicate they need replacing. Magnets can go bad without showing visible signs of wear though. To see how to troubleshoot them check out the help article I attached. For replacement magnets for the Dexter 10 by 2-1/4 inch assemblies you would want the part # BP01-110. As bad as your assemblies sound you might just want to replace both assemblies. For the left hand side you would want the part # AKEBRK-35L-SA...

  • Availability of Dexter Axle Brake Assemblies K23-026-00 and K23-027-00
    We do have the regular Dexter Axle brakes and their Nev-R-Adjust equivalents. The regular (manually adjusted) brakes that you are wanting are listed as part # 23-26 for the Left Hand side and part # 23-27 for the Right Hand side. Their Nev-R-Adjust equivalents are parts # 23-468 and # 23-469 respectively. The Dexter Axle hub and drum assemblies that we have for a 3,500 lb axle use the Inner Bearing # L68149 and Outer Bearing # L44649. If you have a 5 on 4-1/2" bolt pattern then you want...

  • How to Initially Adjust the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes
    The Dexter Nev-R-Adjust electric trailer brakes can be manually adjusted. There are a couple teeth of the adjustment wheel that are exposed just under the lever that you referenced. I have attached a photo showing the teeth. You will likely need a tool with a fine edge such as a flat head screw driver for the adjustment wheel on these brakes. A brake adjustment tool may be too thick. Without an initial manual adjustment, it could take a few braking attempts to adjust the brakes. I was...

  • Replacement Hubs and Brake Assemblies for 2006 Haulmark Thrifty Hauler
    Since we know you have a Dexter 3,500 lb axle on your trailer the Hub part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K is going to fit and work well for you. I would go ahead and replace all of the hub drums now unless you are on a super tight budget. Having everything new on the trailer will give you added peace of mind. The self adjusting brake assemblies part # 23-469 would be correct for the right hand side and then part # 23-468 for the left hand side would be correct as well. These components and the other...

  • Installing Replacement Hub/Drum/Brake Assemblies on Shasta Camper With 10 x 1-1/2-Inch Brakes
    Trailer brakes in the 10 x 1-1/2-inch size are typically welded in place on the axle and are no longer available. But if you have standard 4-bolt brake flanges on your trailer you can install wider 10 x 2-1/4-inch electric brakes along with matching hub/drum assemblies on your existing spindles as long as the bearing numbers match up to the bearings in place now. The linked article will give you background as well as a table on typical component combinations.

  • Recommended Trailer Brakes for 2006 Bigfoot 21 FT Travel Trailer
    From 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...

  • How Thick are Dexter 3,500 lb Axle Brake Assembly Shoes
    Hey Tim, I've measured the brake pad thickness of the Dexter 3,500 lb axle assembly part # 23-468 and found it to be .18 of an inch. Dexter says to replace them at .0625 inch thickness.

  • Where Do The Green Wires On The Dexter Trailer Brake Assembly Connect?
    The other green wire from the Brake Assembly # 23-468 will go to the 7-way junction box and receive power from the trailer brake controller. The reason both wires are green is they power an elctromagnet which is not polarity specific so you only need to ensure the one side is grounded and the other is connected to the brake controller circuit.

  • Replacement Brakes for a 2011 Jayco Jay Flight G2 32BHDS
    It looks like the gross weight rating of your Jayco Jay Flight G2 32BHDS is 9,950 pounds. I am thinking that it has two 5,200 pound axles OR two 4,400 pound axles because they assume the tow vehicle is supporting 13 percent of the trailer tongue weight. If they are 5,200 pound axles then you would need 12 inch brakes with a 5 bolt mounting pattern such as # AKEBRK-6. If they are 4,400 pound axles then you would need 10 inch brakes with a 4 bolt mounting pattern such as # K23-462-463-00. You...

  • Where to Lubricate Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes
    You have to be careful if you lubricate electric trailer brakes such as # 23-468. You cannot get any grease on the pads or on the inside of the drum because that will have a negative impact on brake performance. The magnet arm and the shoes pivot at a single point each. You can use just some wheel bearing grease such as # L11380 at those locations. Ideally you would completely wipe away any grease prior to adding new grease. It will not take much and that tub of grease, listed above, should...

  • Dexter Never Adjust Brakes Initial Adjustment on Tandem Axle Trialer
    The Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3.5K # 23-468-469 are not designed to be manually adjusted in the way you are describing. There isn't really a way to back off the adjustment because they are designed to automatically adjust as needed to maintain correct tension. For adjustment, you should take the trailer to a safe level location where you can hit the electric brake controller hard a few times. To adjust the brakes, the initial...

  • Solution for Over Adjusted Never Adjust Brakes
    If you can pull the hub off that is going to be the easiest way to adjust the brakes looser but if it's super tight that might be hard. Otherwise you would have to use a drum brake spoon like the part # W80630 to try and move the adjuster back to a looser setting. You'll have to work against the mechanism that tightens the brake automatically which can be challenging but it is possible.

  • Can Electric Trailer Brakes for a 4,400 Pound Axle be Used in Place of Brakes for a 3,500 Pound Axle
    Electric trailer brake assemblies for both 3,500 pound and 4,400 pound axles are 10 x 2-1/4 inches and both have the 4 hole square mounting pattern. So you can use 4,400 pound axles brakes. For the left use # K23-478-00 and for the right use # K23-479-00. These are Nev-R-Adjust assemblies which means after you adjust them the first time you will not have to manually adjust them again.

  • Are Dexter Nev-R Adjust Brake Assemblies Adjusted Upon the Initial Installation
    My contact at Dexter did confirm that the # 23-468 Nev-R-Adjust brake assemblies will adjust themselves as you drive after the initial installation, but we still recommend that you do adjust the shoes when you first install the assemblies, so that your brakes are working as well as they can be upon the first use. This would be especially helpful in allowing your brake controller to engage the trailer brakes as intended. To install them, you would just bolt on the assembly, connect the...

  • Solution for Replacing Mobile Home Axles on Trailer So Wheels with Jeep Bolt Pattern Can be Ran
    You'll need new axles. There aren't hubs that are going to fit your mobile home axles since they are one time use. So to get the right hubs you'd have to go with new axles. The Jeep wheel bolt pattern is 5 on 5 inch which we do have a way to accomplish what you are wanting. For a hub that has a 5 on 5 inch bolt pattern to fit the spindles of the Timbren axle less kit part # ASR2KHDS03 you would want the Trailer Hub part # AKHD-550-35-EZ-K. This hub includes the bearings that the Timbren...

  • Parts Needed to Convert From Surge to Electric Brakes
    The backing plate you are referring to is, I'm assuming, the brake mounting flange, which should be welded on. The dimensions of this are extremely important because it will determine the brake assemblies that fit. The Demco Trailer Brake Mounting Flange # DM60124 has a 2-3/4" pilot hole and has a 4 on 4-13/16" bolt pattern. This is uncommon compared to Brake Mounting Flange # 4-35 which is for 2-3/8" round axles and has 4 bolt holes which are 2-7/8" apart on center, which is what you...

  • Will the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Brakes Fit a 2009 Keystone Summerland with AL-KO 3.500 lb Axle
    Yes, the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust brakes will work with your 3,500 lb AL-KO axles. Brake assemblies attach to the brake mounting flange that is welded to the axle or spindle. The brake mounting flange on the 3,500 lb AL-KO axles uses a standard 4-bolt pattern that is compatible with AL-KO 3,500 lb brake assemblies and Dexter brake assemblies. If you would like to confirm the compatibility, you can measure the distance between the bolt holes on the brake mounting flange or on your brake assembly...

  • Picking Out Brake Assemblies for Camper Trailer
    I can help you find the right assemblies, but I do not know exactly which ones you have on your trailer. To pick out the correct brake assemblies for your trailer you need to know a few things. You will want to measure the inner diameter of your hub/drums and the depth of the drums to determine what brake assembly dimensions you need. For example the part # 23-468 is a 10 inch by 2-1/4 inch thick brake assembly. You also want to determine what the bolt pattern is of your assembly mounting...

  • Parts Needed to Replace Hydraulic Drum Trailer Brakes with Electric Drum Trailer Brakes
    The 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...

  • Initial Adjustment of Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Drum Brakes
    Dexter 10-Inch Nev-R-Adjust electric drum brakes # 23-468 and # 23-469 have a star wheel for initial adjustment, just like regular brakes do, but with these self-adjusting brakes you'll mount them and install your wheel/tire and then rotate the tire so that the internal mechanism can sense the pad tension and self-adjust accordingly. You do not want to set the tension high beforehand as the brake will not be able to release that tension. Please refer to the linked video that explains the...

  • Does it Matter which Wire is Ground and Which is Power on Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Trailer Brakes
    On brake assembly # 23-468, and most electric brake assemblies, it does not matter which wire is used for ground and which is used for power. So they are not polarity sensitive and you can use either wire for either function. I have linked a few videos on this brake assembly for you. The matching right hand side assembly is # 23-469.

  • 12 x 2 Inch Electric Trailer Brakes with a 4 Bolt Mounting Pattern
    The 4-bolt brake mounting pattern is fairly rare in a 12 x 2 inch assembly. We have some options though; for 6K axles we have # 23-105-09 for the left and # 23-106-09 for the right. The 4-bolt pattern on these assemblies is offset meaning the bottom 2 holes are closer together than the top 2 holes. If that is what you have then either set listed above would work. I have linked videos on each of these types of brakes for you.

  • Torque Spec for 10 Inch Dexter Electric Brake Assembly
    According to Dexter, the nut should be torqued to between 45-70 foot lbs. If you don't have a torque wrench close at hand, Tighten the bolts until the lock washer flattens, which will put you really close to the correct torque. We offer 4 nuts and lock washers as part # BIK-00.

  • Replacement Hub/Drum and Brake Assemblies for Dexter Hub/Drum 8-249
    Hey Damon, so for the replacement hub and drum you'd want the part # 84556UC3 and then for a matching set of left and right brake assemblies that are self adjusting you'd want the part # 23-468-469. The hub is a 3,500 lb trailer axle hub and has the 5 on 5 inch bolt pattern you need as well. For just a left hand assembly you'd want the part # 23-468 or the right hand side part # 23-469.
