12" x 2" Driver's-side and passenger's-side electric trailer brake assemblies fit 6,000-lb axles. Mounting flanges have a 5-bolt pattern. Fit 14.5" to 16" wheels.If your trailer brakes are like mine were this is the item for you. I purchased a used excavator and it came with a trailer, well the trailer was thrown into the deal for a reason. All the brakes for both axels had multiple problems, cracked shoes, bad magnets, various rusted parts. After totaling the cost of all the individual items I would need, the cost of a brand new brake kit was only a little more and much more easy to replace, five mounting bolts off five on. I do recommend one thing, in the instructions your given the torque setting for the bolts, so Dexter must feel it's important, so use a torque wrench, rent one if you don't own one.
I received 3 boxes all of which had some sort of damaged or destroyed parts in it. All of the bearing kits are garbage, I will need replacements. The back plate and pad assemblies were ok, only two I had to installed the adjuster bolt back into and inspect for damage, but only received 2 of 4 nut and plug kits seen in pictures attached. Everything was improperly boxed, boxes are way too large for these components and hardware/bearing kits were packaged with very heavy components. Bearing kits should have been shipped separately in a small package. Bearing kit was also not in a proper bag, if not a ziploc at least tape the bag shut. I hope the drums are ok, I will have to grind on 2 of them just to allow the wheel to mate properly. I will have to measure all of the races and drum dimensions to ensure they are not warped or bent in any way. Extremely unhappy with this purchase. What a waste of components.
Jenny N - 11/19/2021parts and pricing was fair, had shipping issue on first part of order, (in photo), called to let them know, was no issue and items lost were replaced in a timely manner, will buy from etrailer again, no problem
Joanne was very knowledge about my axle and the backing plates needed. She also communicated with me until I got the shipment. The plates were a snap to install….no more repairs piece by piece. ETRAILER is the source for your towing related parts & supplies. Thanks to Ms Joanne & ETRAILER!
they were packaged loose in a box much bigger than necessary which is fine but also in the box was 8 stainless steel hub caps that got dented up. How careless this was......everything else was 5 stars
Jenny N - 04/26/2022Ah Dexter...the best of the best. It fits, works and loves a beating. Decades of trailering have taught me to look for the Dexter logo.
Very good service. Prompt delivery. Products appear to be good quality.
James - 07/17/2022Package was delivered in record time. Everything fit, no issues with missing parts. Was complete with a simple installation. Took approximately 1 1/2 per wheel including repacking of wheel bearings.
Good quality. A definite upgrade from the questionable Chinese brakes that came on the trailer.
ordered 4 brake assemblies and hubs and 2 of the 8 were damaged, delaying my job and costing me time and money. I paid more money for a quality experience and did not get it
Jenny N - 03/07/2022Great price on the set of these OEM replacements. I was skeptical that I would be receiving left and right in the set for the posted price. Local trailer parts store was selling a single left or right non-dexter for almost as much.
Easy to deal with, great products.
The brake kit was easy to install and good qualify
Everything was a perfect fit - easy replacement- no issues - great service! Thank you
great fit, works perfectly. wonderful staff at etrailer.
Works great, I have 70 trailers on the road and so far no issues.
The shipment came fast and undamaged. The kits were actual Dexter parts and made in USA. I had no trouble installing the kits with the instructions provided in the package by Dexter.
Exactly what came on the axle from the factory and got it fast
Exact replacements for Dexter 6K axles. Easy install.
I used these on my M101A2 military trailer after doing axle swap. They work perfect.
E trailer was so helpful
Product was what it should be
And the customer service is excellent
The Dexter brakes are great but the process of ordering this was a PITA. First, the bearing kit that was "in stock" turned out to not be in stock and the delivery of the brakes themselves was delayed for a couple of days as a result of not learning etrailer was holding the order pending my approval of product substitution. I didn't see that email until Monday morning. I looked at the product they recommended as a substitute and the bearings were not even the same sizes. I scrambled and bought Timkens on [online vendor] with next day ship. Then the brakes were delayed again in transit, not etrailers fault, but it still sucks when your trailer is disabled roadside for a week and parts are not available locally. I usually have pretty solid experiences with etrailer but this was a fail. There is no excuse for showing a product 'in stock' that is not in stock when their inventory systems are all real-time and linked to the website.
But I received the brake kit yesterday and already had my bearing races replaced and my bearings greased up because I got those last week from [online vendor]. All fixed and back on the road now.
As always great products and services
Great product good pricing. Perfect Fit.
