Question:

Will Item # 8-214-5 work for a Dexter 12k dually axle? If not, do you have one that will? We will also need brake shoes/spring kit, wheel cylinders and seals if available. And Im assuming no one sells the spindle? Thanks.

Hey Mike, we have a similar hub that does fit a 12k Dexter dually hub with the part # 8-214-8UC1. The 10k part # 8-214-5 does have same bearings and seal so it would fit technically but it would not be weight rated for a 12k axle. For a drum you would then want the part # DX34XR and brake assemblies part # AKEBRK-12.

However, we do not carry a 12k spindle at this time.

Thanks Jameson. We don't have straight electric brakes, we have electric over hydraulic. I found these shoes but doesn't seem to come with a spring kit. Do you have a spring kit for it and/or a complete setup? BP04-375 & BP04-365 are all I could find. And would these be the correct wheel cylinders? T1718600 & T1718500

@MikeT Hey Mike, since you have EOH brakes you could use the part # 23-408-409 instead. They are the hydraulic brake equivalents that fit Dexter 12k axles. This comes with springs and wheel cylinders as they are complete assemblies.
