According to a PDF on the #9 (1,000-2,200 lbs) Dexter
axle that I downloaded from their site, the part numbers are as follows:
Drums
008-173-16 ½" Studs, elec. brakes ONLY 4 on 4.00
008-276-05 ½" Studs, hyd. brakes ONLY 4 on 4.00
008-257-05 ½" Studs, elec. brakes ONLY 5 on 4.50 <<<
008-271-07 ½" Studs, hyd. brakes ONLY 5 on 4.50
008-173-15 ½" Tapped, elec. brakes ONLY 4 on 4.00
008-276-04 ½" Tapped, hyd. brakes ONLY 4 on 4.00
008-257-04 ½" Tapped, elec. brakes ONLY 5 on 4.50 <<<
008-271-04 ½" Tapped, hyd. brakes ONLY 5 on 4.50I
If there is a Redneck Trailer Supply near you, I would suggest getting a price from them; and also check with
Scamp -- Drums are heavy to ship.
Hydraulic brakes use 7"x1 3/4" shoes, so I presume those drums are bigger.
Jeff, the hub-drums are the most expensive part of the brakes, so after you have done your conversion, I suggest you list the old drums in the
For Sale section so someone else can upgrade to brakes (all they would have to add to the axle is the hardware plate with the shoes and magnets, plus the wiring, breakaway switch and brake controller).
