Dexter® Complete Brake Assemblies

Genuine Dexter® complete brake assemblies from Southwest Wheel® are ready-to-install OEM replacement brakes for trailer axles from 2,200 lbs. through 15,000 lbs. Each assembly arrives as a full backing-plate unit with shoes, lining, magnet or wheel cylinder, springs, and hardware so you can bolt it to the axle flange and connect the wires or brake lines without rebuilding the old brake piece by piece.

Dexter® Complete Brake Assemblies. Sold as left-hand or right-hand units. Genuine Dexter® OEM electric, hydraulic, Nev-R-Adjust®, free-backing, and parking-brake-ready options.

Choose the assembly that matches your drum size, axle rating, bolt pattern, and electric or hydraulic system. Nev-R-Adjust® units take the guesswork out of lining adjustment. Hydraulic free-backing assemblies are a common choice for boat trailers. Always replace brakes in pairs on the same axle for even braking.
