Hey Troy, I will send this out to Dexter to see if they can ID what you have but for replacement part purposes both use the exact same replacement parts so if you are in a hurry you can interchange the parts as needed. What are you looking for?
Thanks for the photo, and you are correct, you do indeed have a Dexter 7,000 lb axle, and are also correct regarding the shoes and magnets for Dexter 7k electric brakes, the Replacement Shoe #DX28FR and Replacement Magnet #BP01-225. That said,…
As you may have already found, 5200 lb, 6000 lb and 7000 lb axles can all use the same components including inner/outer bearings, hubs and brakes. Here are some other things they share in common: Dexter 5200 lb Regular Duty Axle - 0.180 inch tube…
Not a stupid question at all. The Dexter Trailer Hub & Drum Assembly, part #8-388-80UC3 is sold individually. If you find that down the road the inside of the drum is scored it can be resurfaced. The cartridge bearing for this assembly is part…
The Trailer Hub & Drum Assembly #8-388-80UC3 you were looking at is designed specifically for 42mm Dexter Nev-R-Lube axles and you do not grease any of the components. This hub has sealed bearing cartridges which do not get greased. Now if you…
The Trailer Brake Magnet, #BP01-225, that you have referenced is designed for use with 12 x 2 inch Dexter electric drum brakes for 7,000 pound capacity axles. A similar magnet, #BP01-180, fits Dexter 6K, Alko 6K and 7K after 1988 (excluding…
Depends on the capacity Dexter axle you have. If your 12 inch drum axles are 6k rated the magnet you would need as a replacement is the part #BP01-180. If instead you have a 7k axle the correct magnet is the part #BP01-225.
In order to find the correct replacement hubs for your EZ Loader boat trailer you will need to take apart your current hub assembly and look at the bearings themselves; wipe away the grease and you should be able to see the part number stamped…
Hey Carlos, the closest option we have would be the Tandem Axle Jeep Style Trailer Fenders part #HP62VR which is 72 inches long and 10 inches wide. It is also diamond plate like you wanted but it is not painted.
While we do have the best size for your 24x60 cargo carrier #e98874, I recommended using a larger size than the #GC47FR. As a great alternative, I suggest going with the 4' 9" x 5' 3" #GC77FR. This will help make up for the vertical…
Very helpful/friendly Customer Service. Competitive Pricing. Shipping was Fast.

Mesh Tarps for secure, breathable coverage
Toss one over your load to keep rock, mulch, or leaves in place on a utility or dump trailer while the mesh lets air pass so it won't flap around at speed. Pick a size that matches your bed and use your tie-downs or bungee cords at the attachment points for a snug fit. Mesh tarps are great for containment, but they're not for rain coverage, and some grommets may wear if stressed hard.
No, a mesh tarp should not be used as a covering for rain. Mesh is designed for airflow and containment, not to keep water out. If you need weather protection, consider a solid, non-mesh cover. For hauling, mesh works well to keep materials in place without catching as much wind.
Durability varies; some mesh tarps hold up well while others can have grommets or eyelets tear after a handful of uses. Avoid over-tightening a single point and spread tension across more attachment points. Inspect grommets before each trip and consider reinforcing high-stress corners. If a grommet starts to loosen, adjust your tie pattern to reduce strain.
Look at material and weight per square yard. An example spec is 100 percent Polyethylene at 6.5 ounces per square yard. Verify these details in the product specs to match your needs. Heavier-feel mesh can seem sturdier, but also check grommet quality and the number of attachment points for secure tie-downs.
Yes, mesh tarps help keep loads like rock, leaves, mulch, and construction debris from blowing out. The breathable design reduces flapping in the wind compared to solid tarps. Size the tarp to cover the bed with some overlap and secure it to multiple tie-down points. Using bungee cords or similar tie-downs at several spots helps distribute the load and improve hold.
