Specs:
The first number in the bolt pattern is the number of bolt holes. The second number denotes the diameter, in inches, of the circle on which the bolt holes sit.
On wheels with an even number of bolt holes, measure from the center of one bolt hole to the center of the hole directly across from it. (Example: 8 on 6-1/2 means 8 bolt holes with 6-1/2" from the center of one hole to the center of another on the opposite side.)
To determine the bolt-circle diameter on wheels with an odd number of bolt holes, measure from the center of any bolt hole to the point halfway between the two bolt holes directly across from the first. (Example: 5 on 4-1/2 means 5 bolt holes with 4-1/2" measured to a point halfway between the opposite bolt holes.)
Measuring the distance (D) from the center of one bolt hole on the wheel to the center of a bolt hole right next to it can also help to determine the bolt pattern.

I Installed two sets on my 14 foot Trailer. In the mountains of NC, brakes dont seem to last on the truck. I use the truck and trailer for pick up and delivery of Ventracs, that weigh in at around 1500LBS. The trailer empty will actually stop the truck now. (I use the Redarc trailer brake controller). Not having to constantly adjust them is a major plus also. I did wire both axles indepentanly of each other to the junction box. If I happen to have a wire get torn loose, I will only lose braking on one axle and not both. They were a little expensive, but will save me from replacing the brakes on my truck twice a year. Over all, I am glad I got the two sets.
Tows like a dream. With the trailer attached is just like driving with no trailer at all. Brakes are responsive and smooth. Just on additional note: I replaced all 4 of the electric drum brakes with Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kits. All bought from etrailer, all fit perfectly. No problems! Very happy with the product and the results.
Initially ordered the wrong diameter hub assembly. Return was quick. Ordered the correct assembly. Greased the bearing, applied seal and installed Hub and drum assembly. Thanks to the FAQ on giving instructions how to order the correct bearings. Assembly is torqued and ready for the road.
You sent me the wrong size hub in a box indicating the correct size hub. This required a lot of extra time for me to figure out, return ship and acquire the correct one. I’ve had other problems with your products (electric trailer jack) and I am hesitant to continue doing business with you. Your customer service has been difficult and subpar dealing with these problems.
These hub drum assemblies came pre-rusted for me as you can see from the photos. Even with a desiccant pack in the box it didn’t help. If it were only on the braking surfaces I wouldn’t have an issue but it’s within the bearing portion of the hub also. The other issue is the thin small plastic bag that the bearings, seals, lug nuts and grease cap are supposed to be in is flimsy and tears open allowing the bearings to bounce around all over the inside of the box. A better bag would solve the problem. A quick call to Etrailer and new drums are on the way. They said they would verify no rust this time. I’m confident they will be fine this time as Etrailer has always been great to do business with in the past!
Let me mention that I have always had great service and no issues from etrailer until this Dexter order. The package arrived mostly damaged, I should have taken a photo but i opened it and everything looked ok mostly at first glance. The drums were loose inside a box that was too big. When I went to install the drums I first notice an issue with rust, if it wasnt inside the bearing area then i wouldnt have cared but i spent 20 mins cleaning the non preserved drums. then i went to install the seal and noticed it was damaged. I opened the other bag of hardware and same deal, both seals damaged. I then looked at the bearings and noticed an outer bearing was damaged. At this point im in need of drums and had to buy all new drums with seals and bearings from a local farm store, but i had to buy all new drums and hardware as a kit. So now i have these Dexter drums with damaged hardware. I could not wait for replacements etc.
Brooke M - 08/03/2022I got these drums in to replace some old ones. the only thing I miss is the adjustment hole. But being an over cautious tower I inspect my trailer brakes often. Installed yesterday and they worked great. Ordered on a Sunday and received on Tuesday - but I live in the same shipping -zone I believe - got some great LED trailer lights as well. Image shows product installed.
Worked perfectly with the brake system also purchased at the same time
Exact replacement for the Dexter drums that came with the trailer. It's a plus they included new bearings.
Tab that keeps lid shut arrived broken, making the case not able to close Bearings have grease on the outside but are not packed properly. Great idea on a whole hub kit for on the road but not executed well.
Jenny N - 07/18/2022Great product and price . Next time I'll buy complete kit , brake shoes,magnets, drums etc. I bought everything separately .all in one is cheaper . Brakes on my airstream are better than new! Picture is old brakes and magnets I replaced at same time with new drums and bearings.
Pat k - 09/08/2017Needed new brakes and wheel bearings on my 2018 Lance 1995, looked around and found that ETRAILER had exactly the Dexter parts I needed to make my job easier and all for a great price with super fast service and shipping. Thanks ETRAILER,,I'll be back....
Wrapping up a weekend with friends, three hours from home on a lone forest road.. Going through my 'preflight walkaround' I notice grease splayed from the hub cap of one of the wheels, long story short, both wheel bearings had failed, and the hub won't come off. Had to leave the trailer on a forest road till parts could be procured, I wasn't happy about this as I just added about 3k of electronics i.e. solar, inverter, dc-dc, etc.. I searched for the parts I needed and called etrailer to see if shipping could be expedited, Paula S was incredibly helpful and seemed to share my concern. My expectation was to have parts on Thursday, maybe Wednesday, but the etrailer tracking email said Tuesday! I was skeptical, but ok, ill start transfeering almost every tool in the garage to my truck for the rescue mission... I was ready when the UPS truck pulled up at 5pm, 8pm I was on site, wrapped up and had my baby back home by 2am. Couldn't be happier, you've earned a dedicated customer. And, thank you for using UPS for shipping, while other shipping companies are complaining of labor shortages amd delays they came through as advertised, couldn't believe it to be honest. Paula S, the etrailer team and UPS, thank you!
correct part, perfect fit and function.
Did a complete 4-wheel brake replacement on my 2010 Springdale 26', 5th-wheel. OEM Dexter drums and OEM Dexter Never-Adjust Electric Brake Kit. Spoke with etrailer rep and confirmed correct parts for my rig. Ordering was easy and delivered free in 4 days. Used the 4-days to remove old parts, clean under rig, maintenance to slide-out, etc. much easier with tires out of the way. Parts arrived and about 8 hours of work, it's all back together. Can't tell you if it works because we have not taken a trip yet. COVID19 puts a damper on traveling. But a good time to do deferred maintenance.
Great products easy to assemble. Great customer service thanks Tammie. Will use etrailer again!
These Dexter drum kits we’re awesome. It came with everything except a new cotter key. Maybe they will start adding a cotter key to the kit in the future.
Perfect fit for my 6x12 dump trailer. Good price and fast shipping. Had 1 inner bearing damaged in box, appeared to be a shipping issue. etrailer replaced it immediately.
No problems with your drum brakes after their first season on my homemade trailer.
Actual Dexter brake parts is what I wanted and that is what I received. etrailer has the parts at a fair price. You can trust etrailer to get you the right parts fast.
I didnt like that you have to make sure to leave enough wire slack to be able to open the battery door since it has the indicator lights
great place to do business
I drove my empty two axle car trailer a few times to break in the new brakes. During assembly I did not adjust the brakes tight enough, therefore the brakes would not lock up when empty. Adjusting the brakes manually is a royal pain because of the drop axle, so I let them self adjust. On my first 150 mile drive trailering a 66 Mustang, the brakes self adjusted perfectly! Great product!
Curt C - 05/26/2021Wow ! Great prices and fast shipping. Saved a ton. I wish I had found you last year when I had to rebuild my othe Pace Shadow GT Trailer after some 150,000 towing miles. This open trailer has had a tougher life and maybe 50,000 miles. We turned around while working on the trailer and there he was. The local turtle thinks he found a new girlfriend !!LOL Gues he likes your drums.
I have only used for a short time, but so far they working great and are stopping my trailer well. I love that they come with all the needed bearings and dust caps. Mine was not packaged real well, and dust caps came damaged. I am using bearing buddies, so I did not make a stink. Time is the true test, but so far I am happy with my purchase.
