Dexter K71-890-00 3.5K Premier Disc Brake Kit, 10 Inch End Kit with Backing Plate

The Dexter K71-890-00 is a Premier-series disc brake kit built for 3.5K (3,500 lb) trailer axle applications. Supplied as a 10 inch end kit with backing plate, it provides the core hardware needed to fit or rebuild one hub end of a trailer's disc brake system. Dexter's Premier line is engineered for trailer axle duty, giving trailer owners, fabricators, and repair shops a direct-fit kit for 3,500 lb rated axles using a 10 inch rotor/caliper package.

Because it is supplied as an end kit, the K71-890-00 is intended to outfit a single wheel end assembly rather than a full axle, making it a practical option when only one side needs new brake components or when building up a trailer axle end by end.
