Expert Reply:

Since we do not have the replacement actuator arm for your Dexter 10 inch by 1/2 inch brake assemblies and I know you are also looking for replacement shoes/linings and springs your best solution will be all new assemblies for a couple reasons. The price to replace the individual parts is about the same as new assemblies like part # K23-472-00 for the left hand side and part # K23-473-00 for the right hand side. The other reason is the install will be much easier since it's just an assembly swap, and finally you get all new components which prevents needing to replace more parts in the near future.

I attached a review video for these assemblies for you to check out as well.
