For the recommended hubs/drums that work with the Timbren Axle-Less Trailer Suspension # TASR7KS02, we suggest the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 7K lb E-Z Lube Axle - 12" - 8 on 6-1/2 # 42866UC3-EZ. With these hubs, they not only maximize the total weight capacity of your Timbrens, they are also perfect for the E-Z lube spindles. This complete kit comes with races, bearings, and grease seals.

Yes! Since the Timbren Axles # TASR7KS02 come with a standard 5-bolt brake flange, the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies # 23-464-465 are compatible and provide the exact weight capacity and size you need. We always recommend going with Nev-R-Adjust models like the # 23-464-465 to take away the pain of having to manually adjust the brake shoes with normal wear/tear.
