Self-adjusting driver's-side and passenger's-side electric trailer brake assemblies measure 12" x 2" each and feature thoroughly tested magnets and high-quality friction material. Rated for up to 7,000-lb axles.I ordered this kit with a drum and the drum beat these shoes up pretty bad in shipping. I will have to partially disassemble, make adjustments, and reassemble before installation and the wiring on one of the brakes looks bad enough I will have to try to replace. The product might be ok, but the shipping was extremely poor--they don't even come boxed individually, just thrwon in a much larger box with other parts.
These brakes installed simply by 5 bolts and measure the width for perfect brake adjustment. Easy installation and followed the instructions to the Tee.
Have not installed and used these yet. This review is based on shipping and visual inspection. I’d like to award 5 stars however, the shipping department needs to add a bit more packing material when shipping. Even just a couple more layers of cardboard would help. The brakes arrived undamaged but the brake shoes had jump out of their notches from shipping. A smack with a plastic mallet snapped things back in place and all seems well. Visually these brakes look just like the Dexter brand so I suspect they will perform as well.
The phone support is excellent. I had some technical questions and they were able to help me.
Replacing the brakes on your camper using this product is the easiest way to upgrade the non-adjustable brake assembly that is typical on most campers. Be aware that you'll have to apply the brakes quite a few times to allow the self adjusters to adjust the brakes. Don't forget to purchase new grease seals which you will have to replace if you decide to clean and repack the wheel bearings.
They were delivered BEAT TO SHIT. it’s all because of your poor packaging. The brake pads were off. The automatic adjuster cables fell off and one of the cable anchor points was mangled. On top of that there were no instructions, no torque specs either. Good luck finding them on the manufacturer's website either. I hope this crap actually works and doesn’t put me into a guardrail next weekend.
Brake assembly is good if you are looking for value, however as other reviews have mentioned the shipping packaging is not the best, mine arrived with the brake shoes chipped up from being stacked on top of one another with no protection. I contacted customer service and they did offer to reship another set with about a week turn around time, or a refund with about a 7-14 day refund time. I had to install the damaged shoes because of time restrictions
Worked great! Perfect replacement for our 7 ton equipment trailer brakes that had rusted to the point they wouldnt move. Came fast and work great!
Arrived in record time ane it was just what I needed.
Had no problem ordering the parts and receiving them. Will use etrailer again
Showed up fast but one assembly was apart on arrival. Took some work to get it reassembled but not the end of the world
product was perfect, however they were shipped loose in a large box. Some of the shoes were out of place and one cable needed connected
went on easily
Great service, great reasonably priced products
