Helpful Expert Reply:

Since trailer hub/drums can fit either side of the trailer (unlike brake assemblies like the part # AKEBRK-35-SA that you referenced) we don't sell them in sets of two for either side. You'd just need to order a quantity of two and you'd have one for both sides of your trailer.

For a Dexter 3,500 lb axle you'd want the part # 84546UC3-EZ.

I wouldn't say the studs of the brake assembly #AKEBRK-35-SA are easily removable but it would be possible since they are pressed in. It would be like removing any standard wheel stud from a hub. I attached a picture that shows the bolt pattern…

The one piece of info I need from that pic is partially blocked by the bent plate. What is the full capacity number listed? With that I can see what we have that you'd need.

Answer 7

Of course! Looks like you stumbled upon the 10-pack that dealers like to grab. For just the single pair you'll use part #AKEBRK-35-SA. This will give you a single pair (left and right) 3,500 pound self-adjusting brake assemblies. Since you need…

The difference between the Class II and Class III hitches has to do with their Gross Trailer Weight (GTW), their Tongue Weight (TW), and their Hitch Receiver Size. Class II trailer hitch receivers have a 1-1/4 inch receiver and can be rated up to…

It sounds like you are speaking of the wires for the brake magnets. If this is correct, you will need to connect one of the wires to the brake controller output wire on your trailer connector and the other wire will need to be grounded to a clean…

A 4-Way trailer connector has the basic lighting functions only; running lights, left turn signal and brake lights, right turn signal and brake lights, and ground. A 7-Way has these functions and a 12 volt circuit, a circuit for electric trailer…

Answer 12

That's a very good question, we tend to be extra cautious and say to use 10 gauge wire because that would be more than enough. When you get into longer trailers that will end up using a lot of wire the heavier gauge wire becomes more necessary.…
