Care information

To ensure optimal performance and extend the service life of your new trailer components, please follow these care guidelines after purchase:

  • Before installation, check all parts for shipping damage or missing components. Do not install damaged parts.
  • Always use correct tools and torque settings. Improper installation can lead to premature wear or failure.
  • For bearings, suspensions, and brake components, apply high-quality trailer grease before first use if not pre-greased.
  • Some parts (like brake assemblies) require a short break-in period to achieve full performance. Follow manufacturer instructions for best results.
  • Recheck fasteners, grease levels, and moving components after 100 miles of towing, then at regular intervals.
  • After exposure to water, road salt, or mud, clean and dry parts thoroughly. Apply anti-rust treatment if needed.
  • If storing unused parts, keep them in a dry, sealed container away from moisture and direct sunlight.

This brake assembly fits most standard 7,000 lb trailer axles that use 12" × 2" electric brakes with a 5-bolt mounting flange. Please verify your axle rating and brake dimensions before ordering. If you're unsure, send us your axle tag or hub information and we'll help confirm compatibility.
Yes. It is compatible with many standard Dexter, Lippert, Rockwell American, AL-KO, and other 7,000 lb trailer axles that use a standard 12" × 2" brake assembly. Always verify your axle specifications before purchasing.
Yes. This is a self-adjusting electric brake assembly, which automatically maintains proper brake shoe clearance during normal operation. This reduces maintenance and helps provide consistent braking performance.

Product Overview: 

Replace or service your 6,000 lb trailer axle hub and drum assembly with the Dexter K08-201-2G 6K Pre-Greased Hub & Drum Kit. Designed for 6K trailer axle applications using a #42 spindle, this complete assembly features a 6 on 5.5" wheel bolt pattern, 1/2"-20 wheel studs, and a 12" x 2" brake drum configuration. The hub uses Dexter part number 008-201-09 and comes pre-greased with the bearings supplied as part of the complete replacement kit. 

The assembly uses a 25580 inner bearing and 15123 outer bearing, matched with a 25520 inner race and 15245 outer race. The bearing races are pressed into the hub and drum, while the included 2.250" grease seal (010-036-00) has a 3.376" outside diameter to help retain lubricant and protect the bearing area from outside contamination. 

The K08-201-2G also includes six 1/2"-20 60-degree cone nuts, standard and E-Z Lube® grease caps, a rubber plug, and spindle retention hardware including a retainer nut, hex nut, slotted nut, D-washer, washer, and cotter pin. The pre-greased configuration reduces the bearing preparation required during hub and drum replacement while providing the components needed for compatible Dexter 6K applications.
