Question:
I have a 2018 Keystone Montana with Dexter 7000 lb axles. In looking on your website for brake assemblies, it list multiple part numbers with what looks to be the same description? What is the correct part number for Dexter axles?

Expert Reply:
Hey Glen, while there are several options for replacement brake assemblies for your 2018 Keystone Montana with Dexter 7000 lb axles the etrailer assemblies part # AKEBRK-7-SA are what I would recommend. These are self adjusting 7k assemblies that work great and also have the best price so they are the way to go. There are several options like you mentioned but this is due to how standard most trailer brake components are nowadays. If you wanted to keep everything Dexter we do have the part number for that with # 23-464-465.
