Expert Reply:

In order to figure out what drums your 10,000 lbs AL KO axle needs you're going to need to pull one of your current hubs off and check the numbers stamped into the sides of your bearings. If you are unable to find them you will need to take a couple of measurements.

You will be looking for the inner diameter of the bearings. You can measure the bearings, or where they ride on the spindle, using a digital caliper like item # PTW80157. Once this is done you will be able to match them up with the correct replacement hub.

I have attached a diagram showing where to measure.

To replace your 10K AL-KO electric brakes you'll need the Dexter Electric Brake Kit item # 23-450-451 which are self-adjusting 12-1/4" x 3-3/8".
