Recommended Replacement Electric Trailer Brakes For 7000lb Dexter Axle
Question:
Thanks! now I was wondering about shoes only. Not the whole kit

I would be happy to help!
Since your Dexter axle has a 7000lb rating you will need the Electric Brake Assemblies # 23-464-465 for self adjusting brakes, or # 23-180-181 for standard brakes that you will need to adjust on occasion.
I recommended the self adjusting versions as there is nothing to have to manually adjust in the future, but they are a bit more expensive so it will come down to how much you are looking to spend.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
