Hey Bruce, I would go with Grade 8 bolts to install the Demco Straight Tongue Coupler part #DM15000-52. Stainless would be a great choice too but that's not an absolute requirement.
The #SP-210275 you were looking at is for a 3500lb axle and is 27" long measured from center of spring eye to center of spring eye. This is the correct spring for your trailer based on the measurements you provided. The next shortest spring…
Dexter 4,000 lb axle leaf springs like the part #e48SR for 26 inches long or part #e57SR for 25-1/4 inch would work great with a 3,500 lb axle. There would be no issue with 1,700 lbs of weight either.
Even though I cannot comment specifically on the grease you used because I am not familiar with it, I can tell you the best grease for trailer bearings is a a grease with a rating of GC-LB, which just means it is made to withstand very high…
Hey George, honestly not much really. The Timken brand like the seal part #TMK98ZR used to be associated with being made in the USA and higher quality but they aren't made in USA any longer so between that and the part #RG06-070 there's not…
Hey Ronald, based on the part number you mentioned the correct brake assemblies would be the etrailer brake assemblies part #AKEBRK-7-SA which are a self adjusting set that are the correct capacity for the hub/drums that you have.
Hi Rusty; the Dexter #84546UC3-EZ and etrailer #AKHD-5475-35-K will both fit a 3,500 lb axle but they have different bolt patterns. You already ordered the Dexter in the past so I'm assuming your wheels are 5 on 4-1/2. For the same bolt pattern…
In order to determine the torque rating for the lug nuts on your trailer you will need to know check out the chart I attached that shows all of the torque specs for all the trailer lugs available based on stud size, wheel material and wheel size.
I looked in several places online and couldn't get a definite axle capacity for your trailer. I'd assume it's a pretty high capacity since it's a tandem axle trailer that weighs 12k and has 3k of capacity. So most likely you have 8k…
Hello Steve, thanks for reaching out. According to my research, the wheels that Grand Design uses are similar Aluminum Jaguar wheels that have a recessed valve stem hole. We have found the Americana Metal, Bolt-In Valve Stem #AM20906 to work with…
Hey Chris. I just went out to the warehouse and pulled one of the Kodiak Disc Brake Caliper item #KDBC225DAC. I got just over 5-13/16" with my tape measure on the mounting pin spacing. The Kodiak Disc Brake Caliper item #KDBC225DAC will…
Hey Steve, to avoid having the trailer battery power the actuator of the Hydrastar kit part #HYD44VR you would want to install a diode that only allows the current to go to the battery and not from the battery back to the actuator. For that you'd…
