Dexter K71-773-01 Caliper Assembly Kit, Left Hand, DB-35 Disc Brake, 3.7K-7K Axles, Zinc Plated
The Dexter K71-773-01 is a complete left hand caliper assembly kit built for Dexter DB-35 disc brake trailer axles rated from 3.7K through 7K. This kit supplies the left side caliper assembly as a single unit, so it is a direct fit for trailer owners replacing a worn, corroded, or damaged caliper without having to source individual internal components separately. The assembly carries a zinc plated finish, which helps resist the corrosion that trailer brake hardware is regularly exposed to from road spray, launching, and retrieving boats or equipment trailers in wet and salt environments.
Because this is the left hand (LH) specific caliper assembly, it is designed to mount on the left side of the trailer axle only. The right hand caliper assembly is a separate part with its own part number, so trailer owners servicing both sides of a DB-35 brake axle will need to order the correct left and right assemblies individually rather than assuming one kit covers both sides.
This caliper assembly kit is intended for trailer maintenance and brake system rebuilds where the left side caliper needs to be replaced as a complete unit. It is sold as an assembly to simplify installation and help ensure proper fit and function on compatible Dexter DB-35 disc brake axles within the 3.7K to 7K capacity range.
