Dexter Add-On Axle Brake Line Kit K71-G02-57 - Brass Trailer Brake Line Kit

The Dexter Add-On Axle Brake Line Kit (K71-G02-57) extends a single-axle trailer brake line setup into a tandem-axle configuration. It is designed to be used together with a single axle brake line kit; combining the single axle kit and this add-on kit forms one complete tandem end-unit brake line kit. The kit includes all hardware needed to add disc or drum brakes to a trailer axle, though the actuator and brake assemblies themselves are supplied separately. Lines and fittings are made of brass for corrosion resistance in wet, marine-trailer environments. This kit is intended for installers and trailer owners upgrading a single-axle brake line system to tandem-axle coverage without replacing the entire brake line assembly. Because it is an add-on component rather than a standalone kit, it should not be installed by itself - it is only a complete solution when paired with the corresponding single axle brake line kit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Dexter K71-G02-57 Add-On Axle Brake Line Kit used for? It extends a trailer's single-axle brake line setup to cover a second axle, letting you convert a single axle brake line kit into a tandem axle configuration.

Can the K71-G02-57 add-on kit be installed by itself? No. The K71-G02-57 add-on kit must be used together with a single axle brake line kit - on its own it does not form a complete brake line system.

What material are the brake lines made of? The Dexter K71-G02-57 kit is made of brass, chosen for its corrosion resistance in wet trailer and marine environments.

Are the actuator and brakes included in this kit? No. The K71-G02-57 kit includes the brake line hardware only; you supply the actuator and the brake assemblies separately.

What is the difference between the single axle kit and this add-on kit? The single axle kit is a complete brake line kit for one axle on its own, while the K71-G02-57 add-on kit is designed to pair with that single axle kit to add a second axle, together forming a tandem end-unit brake line kit.

Is the K71-G02-57 kit the same as a tandem axle brake line kit? Not by itself. The tandem configuration is achieved by combining the single axle kit with this K71-G02-57 add-on kit into one end unit.
