Question:
I have a set of 9000 lb dual wheel tandem axles under my gooseneck trailer. They are oil bath Dexter axles. Model number:9000. Serial number: 12108947124. Would these brakes be correct for these axles? I’m looking for complete self adjusting brake kits, bearings and oil seals as well. Thanks in advance! This trailer is a 1990 model. I’m unsure of its history but it is missing the brake shoes and I want to go through both axles to make it all right and reliable.

Hey Brandon, thanks for the information. The Electric Trailer Brake Kit w/ Dust Shields item # AKEBRK-10 are exactly what you need. These self adjusting electric brakes are rated for 9,000 lbs and 10,000 lbs axles. You will need one set per axle.
I recommended replacing your mounting bolts with the Mounting Bolts and Hardware for 12-1/4" Brake Assemblies item # BRKH122510. This will replace one axle's brake mounting bolts and hardware.
For replacement bearings and seals there is not a kit that has all of the bearings and seals but you can purchase them all separately as follows:
Inner Bearing item # 387A
Inner Race item # 382A
Outer Bearing item # 25580
Outer Race item # 25520
Oil Seal item # 10-51
And Oil Cap Kit item # RG04-270
