I ended up w/ two sets of seals, make a fair offer if you want a set of seals,
they were dropped shipped to me direct from Dexter so they are new, not NOS.
I have 4- 010-056-00 seals, make offer.
I tore down one wheel all the way till all's I had
was a spindle. The one seal on the inside is a Unitized
Seal that spins, it is a TCM OIL SEAL OB3145059.
If you look in the Dexter catalog it calls for a 010-056-00 .
So I ordered the 010-056-00 and they seem like a MUCH LOWER
quality then...
Kendall grease it is.
It is recommended by DEXTER and I see it has
other qualities that are similar if not superior to GAA grease and I
might just go w/ it for the long haul unless someone tells me it
is NOT ok for M939 and M915 series trucks. It is certainly A-OK
and recommended for Dexter...
I was RIGHT.
I pulled my caliper bolts and found them rusted as I said and the actual surface
of the shoulder part of the bolts had a poor / substandard machined
finish, you can see machining grooves for cryin' out loud! I got all
new bolts and the new caliper bolts are smoother than James...
Yes Brian you welcome, I wish everyone would chime in if they do
a repair, giving us a how to. It could really be a life saver if you are
out on the road and have a break down, get well soon.
CLICK HERE to see what I used to make my rear- 3-Light over80" light set out of.
Chop Chop, Drill Drill Drill Drill Drill, wire up and change the LED's to red.
I found the LED's on Ebay for cheap.
Looks store bought.
TU QF, I read many of the debates and it is looking like GREASE is going
to win out for me. Dexter Axle has a big list of approved grease's and one
is Kendall's L-427 Super Blu Grease. This place seems to have decent
prices but now I am trying to figure out if it will work on my M925A1
and my...
Hey guys I just found an issue and dollars to donuts it is the same
on every one of these trailers and it really needs to be addressed IMO.
I pulled a brake caliper to see just how bad the rust is and the 2 brake caliper
slider shoulder bolts are jacked. Those things should be chrome plated...
I pulled one of the hub oil caps that were originally CLEAR
and have been painted over to find grease instead of oil
in there. It does NOT look good guys. I took a picture
of the dryed out grease inside the cap, you can see the
cracks where the grease has dried out.
I "believe" these axles...
I found the AXLE documents needed. CLICK HERE then on the right you
see the 9-15K models, that is what you want, DISC BRAKES stuff.
I think we have D120HD Axles. 12,000 pounders.
Yes the outer caps are supposed to be clear to see the oil inside.
If these trailers were flooded the axles...
Blast...!
I just looked for the axle ID numbers and I "think" they are
covered by the welded on trailing arm. CLICK HERE for an
Axle ID How To.
"IF" someone sees this ID please share it w/ me.
Anyone know how to cage these brakes?
I think they are a #D120HD DEXTER AXLE.
No joy or I am too stupid ot quickly find the docs for these things on their website.
