Quick Tip: There's really not a whole lot to getting new drum brakes. If you've confirmed that all of the specs listed above line up with what you need for your trailer, you can be pretty sure these will work for you.
Ready to Roll When You Are
If you're looking to customize your off-road trailer or pop-up camper, these brakes can be a great way to do that.
Installing these brakes is easy, and using them is even easier. Run the linkage cable from your tongue-mounted handbrake (not included) to the backing plate of the assembly as shown above. Then, just pull on the handbrake any time you need a little reassurance that your valuable cargo won't roll away from you.
How to Manually Adjust Trailer Brakes
The more miles you put on your trailer, the more your brake pads will wear down. As they lose contact with the drum, stopping distances get longer and longer. To keep your brakes working great, it's important to adjust them pretty routinely. For this job, grab a floor jack and either a brake adjustment tool (sold separately) or just a standard flathead screwdriver.
Jack up your trailer enough to get the wheel(s) off the ground. Remove the adjuster plugs from the backing plate on the brake, and insert the flat end of the tool through the back of the assembly.
Push in on the star gear and lift it up. Keep doing this until the brake pads catch on your drum. When you can't spin your wheel by hand anymore, back the gear off by about 10 clicks by pushing down on the star gear. Does the wheel now spin freely (even if it sounds like the brake pads drag slightly on the drum)? Great! Then you're all done with that one and ready to adjust the rest.
How to Break In New Brakes
After you get these brakes installed and adjusted, you'll need to break them in. First, find a long stretch of road or a big, empty parking lot. Once you're there, set your brake controller to its maximum setting and get moving. Speed up to about 40 mph and brake to slow to about 20 mph. Repeat this 15-30 times. The goal is to get the brake shoes and magnet properly seated into your drum. You'll know you've done that when it feels less jerky (and more consistent) each time you apply the brakes.
Note: The brakes will be very hot after doing this, so after every 10 stops you'll want to wait about 10 minutes to let the brakes cool off before continuing. If you don't, you might cook and crack the pad material.

Purchased Dexter 3,500 lb backing plate assembly with brakes including manual brake. Parts were genuine Dexter. Installation has helped in the restoration of a Sloan Kwik Load car trailer I recently acquired.
Appreciate the etrailer employee followup, service, and pricing. Thanks so much.

Great. Easy to fit. So much safer than chocks. Would definitely buy for next travel trailer
by: Peter G03/17/2022
etrailer's service and delivery was excellent! Very professional, fast and the staff were super helpful and knowledgeable.
Dexter's brake hubs, however, leave a lot to be desired. They couldn't put less paint on these assemblies if they tried! The paint is so patchy and thin that I will have to disassemble them, paint the components properly and reassemble before installing them on my trailer otherwise they will be rusty within days. Come on Dexter, if you are going to bother painting these assemblies then for goodness sake paint them properly!

At Ruger Trailers we have been getting more requests for Dexter electric brakes with the parking brake feature. After attempting to order through our normal distributors we were disappointed at the lack of availability and high prices. Went through etrailer and got exactly what we needed in two days at a very good price. Good experience!

See what our Experts say about this Dexter Trailer Brakes
- Replacement Brake Assemblies for a 2015 Forest River R-Pod 179 Travel TrailerYes, they do. The ones you were looking at, item # 23-468-469, are Dexter's Nev-R-Adjust brakes. This set of left and right hand assemblies are the top of the line option for your 2015 R-Pod 179 trailer. Once you install them and they get broken in you will never have to mess with them again. If you are wanting the most affordable option, then I would go with the etrailer Electric Trailer Brake Kit item # AKEBRK-35. This is still a great set of brakes they just won't have the self adjusting...

These hubs have a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern to match your Tacoma's. For the brakes, we do not have an assembly that is both self adjusting and also has a parking brake. If your priority...

The correct hub/drum is the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K for EZ-Lube or part # AKHD-545-35-K for standard. In regards to models with the parking brake feature, these are not available in self adjusting but we do carry them as the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit w/ Parking Brakes part # K23-086-087-00. If you are instead referring to a breakaway, I recommend...

The hub and drum assembly that this suspension system is compatible with is the Dexter Assembly for 3500 lb E-Z Lube Axles, part # 84656UC3-EZ.

If your brakes are not equipped with a parking brake feature, then you could wire a switch that would power the brakes when you are parked,...

- Will 10 Trailer Brakes and etrailer Hub and Drum Assembly 10 Fit TImbren Axle-Less ASR2KHDS03?They sure are! The Timbren Heavy-Duty Axle-Less Trailer Suspension - 4" Lift Spindle - Wide Tires - 2,000 lbs # ASR2KHDS03 you were looking at has the 4 bolt mounting flange which will fit the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit w/ Parking Brakes - 10" - Left/Right Hand Assemblies - 3.5K # K23-086-087-00 perfectly.

view full answer... - Hubs and Brake Assemblies with Parking Brakes for Timbren Axle Less Kit for 3,500 lb AxleI have the exact type of solution you are looking for but the Timbren Axle Less kit part # ASR35HDS02 that you referenced uses spindles that were designed for 6k trailer hubs like the # 8-201-9UC3-EZ even though the axles are 3,500 lb so you'd need to use the mentioned hub and drum and then for electric brake assemblies that have parking brakes you'd want the # 23-112-113.

But those brakes are too small for the hub that fits the Timbren # ASR2KHDS02, which is the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 3,500-lb E-Z Lube Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 # 84546UC3-EZ.

You'll want to use the Dexter Axle # K23-086-087-00 brake assembly kit which includes the right and left brake assembly, the mounting hardware and the mud and crud plugs that cover the brake adjuster holes. I've linked to a product description video for the brake assemblies I recommended.

The lever is included with the kit, however at this time we do not offer a cable for this, unfortunately.

I do have a solution for you, however we do not have a complete axle kit that includes manual park brake assemblies.
