Match the Dexter kit to electric vs. hydraulic, axle rating, and left or right side before ordering. 12" x 2" shoes are not interchangeable with 10" or 12-1/4" shoes. Replace shoes in pairs on the same axle so both wheels apply evenly, then adjust or verify the self-adjuster and burnish the new lining with moderate stops.
