Expert Reply:

The Dexter Electric Trailer Brakes - 12" - Left/Right Hand - 6K AL-KO/Hayes Axles # 23-105-106-09 would likely be a fit for your Kelsey Hayes Co 5,200lb axles but the hub-drums might be a challenge to find. Hayes liked to use their own proprietary sizes for bearings so it's harder to find replacements now that they've gone out of business.

To determine if there is a fit you'll need to measure the spindle at points B, C, and D on the diagram below to get the inner diameter for the bearings. This will need to be extremely precise so I recommend using a digital caliper # PTW80157. Let me know what you find and I'd be happy to start looking for some replacements.

@Cameron Unfortunately it looks like we don't have compatible bearings and seals for your spindle so at this point you'd be looking at replacing the axle. You can try looking around to see if there's some compatible bearings/seals somewhere else but it'd likely be a hard find. To replace your axle you can call our customer service department at 1-800-940-8924.

The drums also have a part number of K-H 85454 if that also helps
