• Hub and Drum Assemblies and Spindles for Dexter Electric Trailer Brakes 23-112
  The brake assembly # 23-112 is rated for 6,000 pound axles, not 3,500 pound axles. For a 3,500 pound axle you will need to look at 10x2-1/4 inch brakes such as # 23-26 for the left side and # 23-27 for the right side. These mount to a 4-bolt flange, such as # 4-34 for 1-3/4 inch round axles, or # 4-35 for 2-3/8 inch round axles. Brake mounting flanges need to be installed by a qualified professional with experience welding on brake flanges because it is a precision job requiring special...

• How Much Power Does a 10 Inch Trailer Brake Assembly Draw
  On a 10 inch brake assembly such as # 23-468 the magnet draws 3.2 to 4 amps at 12 to 13 volts.

• Replacement Hub and Brakes for M101A2 Trailer
  I wish I could say for sure that the # AKHD-655-6-EZ-K fits but we don't have that information. You will have to identify the bearings on your M101A2 to confirm this. The hub assembly uses the # 25580 inner bearing and # 15123 outer bearing so if that is what you have now it will fit. The # 23-113 and # 23-112 will work with this hub and drum assembly. However, you will have to confirm that you have a 5-bolt brake flange on your axle.
