Hey Phillip, since we know you have 3,500 lb axles we can help but it's not based on the VIN.

Since we don't know what brake assembly brand you have on your trailer but we do know capacity the correct replacement assemblies are the part # AKEBRK-35-SA. It's oftentimes more cost effective to just replace the assemblies instead of the individual components plus it's a lot harder to find the parts.

Then for a grease seal you'd want the part # RG06-050.

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…
