Question:
I have 2 questions: 1. Are part numbers AKEBRK-35-SA E brakes and AKHD-545-35-EZ-K Drums compatible? 2. Do the brake drums AKHD-545-35-EZ-K come with everything needed for install? For example, bearings, seals, castle nut, and cotter pins? I dont see castle nuts or cotter pins in the images Thanks in advance!

Hey Zac. The etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes item # AKEBRK-35-SA are indeed compatible with the Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly for 3.5K Axles item # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K. This hub is sold individually and fits a inner bearing item # L68149 and outer bearing item # L44649.
The Easy Grease Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly item # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K includes all the bearings, races, and seals you need to complete the installation. For castle nut that fits a 1" spindle you'll need item # 165686. For a cotter pin you'll want the Cotter Pin - 1/8" Thick x 1-3/4" Long item # 165649. These are sold individually.

Thanks, Jerred! I'm working on a 2000 Merhow horse trailer; it's needed a ton of work. Thank you for including the castle nut and cotter pin! This will be much more affordable.
