Replacement Spring Recommendation for Dexter 12 inch Self-Adjusting Brake Assemblies

Updated 04/13/2020 | Published 04/11/2020

Question:

I have two questions related to the Dexter brakes noted above. I need to replace the brake adjuster screw and spring on the passenger/right side. Are this spring and the adjustment screw Item # 048-023-00 correct replacement parts for the brakes that I have? Is there a different part number used for the driver and passenger side springs or can the same part be used on both sides?

The spring you need as a replacement for your Dexter 12 inch brake assemblies is the part # 046-139-00 that you referenced. This fits both left and right hand brake assemblies so if you need springs for either side this would be the correct spring to get.
