Question:
I have a 1998 Starcraft 24RK travel trailer with 2 Dexter D35 3500 lb axles ID from axle tags. I am looking to replace the electric brake assemblies and hubs/bearings/seals. Wheel bolt pattern looks to be 5 x 4.75 and the spindles are not EZ lube no grease zerk. Would 2 of part 23-26-27 and 4 of part 845476UC3 achieve my objective. Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Yes, 2 of the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kits # 23-26-27 and 4 of the Dexter Trailer Hub and Drum Assemblies # 845476UC3 will allow you to replace all your brake and hub components and have a 5 on 4.75" bolt pattern.
You do have the option of going with the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit # 23-468-469 as well if you prefer to have self-adjusting brakes. This will give you better brake feel as your brakes wear and saves you from having to constantly crawl under your trailer to adjust the breaks.
You can also install the Bearing Buddy Bearing Protectors # BB1980A-SS in place of the standard grease caps. This will allow you to easily fill your hub with grease similar to how a EZ Lube spindle works.
