We do offer individual drum brake parts like shoes as well other parts, and we also have complete replacement brake assemblies. To save on labor time many of our customers choose to replace the whole brake. Sometimes that route even costs less than the individual parts.

For Dexter 10 x 2-1/4-inch electric Nev-R-Adjust drum brakes on a 3500-lb axle we offer right-hand shoe kit # K71-682 and left-hand kit # K71-681.

If you want a whole new pair of self-adjusting brakes for a 3500-lb axle use Dexter part # 23-468-469 or etrailer kit # AKEBRK-35-SA.

Answer 5

For a 3500 lb axle, having a mounting bolt pattern of 2-7/8 inches is typical. The only exception would be for a few 4400 lb axles, which use a mounting bolt pattern of 2-13/16. I checked with Dexter Axle, and was told that the 69-47 designation…
