Question:

Is there such a thing as a hardware repair kit for Dexter 7000# 12x2 brakes that would have all the little springs, clips, show retainers etc. mine are all rusty but shoes are still good. Thanks

The closest thing to that would be the replacement adjustment screw kit part # DX43QR that fits Dexter 7k 12 inch assemblies like what you have. This comes with the following:

2 Adjuster springs
1 Left-hand adjuster lever spring
1 Right-hand adjuster lever spring
1 Left-hand adjuster screw assembly
1 Right-hand adjuster screw assembly
2 Adjuster cables
2 Cable anchor hooks
1 Left-hand self-adjusting lever
1 Right-hand self-adjusting lever
