If you’re tired of crawling under your trailer to tweak brake shoes, these Dexter Nev-R-Adjust electric brakes take care of it for you. The self-adjusting design automatically keeps the shoes in proper contact with the drum as they wear, so stopping stays smooth and even. Once installed, the system maintains optimal braking power without any routine adjustment.
These 10" x 2-1/4" assemblies are built for standard hub-and-drum setups on 3,500-lb axles and fit 14" and 15" wheels. The 4-bolt mounting flange has 2-7/8" spacing on center for a secure fit. Each kit includes left- and right-hand brakes complete with durable magnets and bonded pads that deliver strong, consistent braking torque.
Unlike hydraulic systems, these electric drum brakes need only a brake controller—no actuator or fluid lines to deal with. Just bolt them up, connect two wires per side, and you’re ready to dial in your controller. It’s a clean setup that’s easy to install and even easier to maintain over time.
Long-lasting brake pads are fully bonded to the shoes for uniform wear and better braking response than riveted pads. Each assembly sits inside a stamped steel housing with adjuster plugs that keep out dirt, grime, and road debris. The result is dependable braking every trip with minimal upkeep needed.
The brakes will be very hot after doing the break-in process, 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.

High-five on finally getting those old rusted bolts off! That can definitely be a hard task to do. Hopefully you will be able to hit the road with your trailer soon!

It has been a year since I installed the Nev-R-Adjust electric trailer brakes and they are still doing a great job. In October Hurricane Michael struck and I have used the utility trailer more than I ever anticipated and have had zero problems from the brakes. Moving equipment & debris became a daily task.

I recently removed the brake drums to check the brake pad wear and found the pads to be wearing evenly and no adjustment was needed. Self adjusting brakes are the way to go as an easy upgrade to the brake system.
