Question:
Hello, I recently picked up a Canadian military 1/4 ton trailer CDN M101 with standard hand operated parking brake drum type. I am modifying the trailer for off road use and would like to upgrade the entire axle/brake assembly. I want to add electric brakes, but do really like the parking brake that is currently on the trailer. I read online somewhere that Dexter offers an electric brake equipped axle WITH a cable actuated parking brake as well. The current axle and the new one I plan to purchase is a 3500b axle. If you can point me in the right direction thatd be great. Thanks

Expert Reply:
The only Dexter brake assemblies we offer with parking brakes are for 6k axles. For that you would need part # 23-112 and # 23-113.
If your trailer has 12 inch drums on it already and the mounting flanges for brakes on the spindle have a 5 bolt pattern then these assemblies would fit.
