Expert Reply:
For a Dexter 3,000 lb trailer axle what you'd need to do is upgrade to the 3,500 lb trailer axle hub/drums like with the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K which fits your spindle and then would allow you to install a set of 3,500 lb trailer brake assemblies that are self-adjusting like the # AKEBRK-35-SA and you'd be set. The hub comes with bearings as well.
