Question:
I am doing a project for my boss and I have a few questions. I will start with the project, its an older Flying L gooseneck horse trailer with tandum axle, and it has the old 4 bolt axle mounting flange with bolt measurements left to right top 2 holes measure 3inches, the bottom 2 holes from left to right measure 2.5inches and center of top hole to bottom hole measures 3 1/4 inches . It requires a 12x2 inch electric braking assembly. Now do all 12x2 brakes fit the 4 bolt mounting flange or does it have to be a special brand or part to bolt up correctly. I am also in search of hubs with a 6 bolt pattern. any help or advise would be great. thank you very much.

Expert Reply:
When it comes to brakes for your boss's older Flying L gooseneck horse trailer, I believe that I have exactly what you are looking for, # 23-105-09 and # 23-106-09 for a 6,000 lb axle. I have included a picture which includes the mounting hole measurements for these brakes. Although these measurements are very close to those that you have provided, I recommend measuring one more time to ensure that they will work for you.
As for hubs with a 6 on 5-1/2 bolt pattern, you can use Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly, # AKHD-655-6-K, as long as the trailer uses inner bearing # 25580 and outer bearing # 15123.
If the trailer does indeed use these bearings and you would like to replace those as well, take a look at Bearing Kit, # BK3-110.
