Are you able to provide a clear description of the size? It is a 12 inch and I searched for a 10 inch. ?

Lists "10" on the right. To find it, just go a little further in your

How about the 12" electric backing plate? Is it also a four bolt design?

Greetings. I am glad to hear that you have a question about parts and products. An electric brake assembly with a 5 bolt pattern is available for 12" X 2".

Does this pair have a left and right side?

Here are the brakes for the left side. If there has been any confusion, please accept my apology.

Does the mounting bolt pattern depend on whether it is 4 or 5 bolts?

I hope this is helpful to you, Jesse. The bolt pattern on the backing plate of electric brakes is 4 bolts. Feel free to let me know if you need anything else, and I'll do my best to help.

Keeping the brakes on all the time
5/5

It would have been better braking on my 14K lb fiver if I went to 8000 lb axles. The brakes I have so far used have impressed me greatly. The new ones were ready to swap out of the boxes and have broken in quickly without problem. As of now, I've cranked the brakes up to light drag after installing them and can feel the brakes snug up over about 600 miles of use.

A great set of brakes
5/5

For trailers, these magnetic drum brakes are a great replacement for the standard 12" magnetic drum brakes. A drum brake can be replaced by simply changing the shoes, hardware, and magnet for about the same price and much easier if you replace the entire assembly. It bolted on right away and works perfect with my existing drums. The hardware comes pre-assembled. It has been assembled and is ready to be installed. A new set of mounting nuts and some weatherproof components are also included. Plugs that are proof against electricity. It is even possible to find dialectic grease in the electrical connectors. A self-concept is an individual's sense of identity. There's no doubt that the adjustment mechanism will work well, but it is cable-operated, which is most likely to be the first point of failure. It is definitely a recommendation that I would make.

The brakes work great and are easy to install
5/5

Although my old brakes were still in very good condition, I immediately noticed a dramatic difference in the amount of gain I needed for the trailer brakes after installing the new ones. Taking Lippert's advice for brake wear in helped me improve my braking, as I am sure it contributed to my increased.

Thanks to Lippert! It replaced a unit from Dexter, and it fits perfectly and is just as durable as the one it replaced.

This is a great setup
5/5

The brakes are much better than the ones the factory installed on my trailer. These look perfect. They were easy to wire. I assume they are service brakes, right? As a replacement for my older rusted break-off box, I used this one It is a "away only" brake assembly, and the problem is it only self adjusts when it is being Stay safe and have a great break It is rare for away brakes to be applied. As soon as I put the brake, I manually adjusted them - Leaving the hub or wheel on all the time.

A great set of brakes
5/5

As a replacement for my 5th wheel brake system, I have chosen the Lippert Brake System. I was surprised at how well everything fit and worked. Installing the software is simple. Including new bearings and hubs, I replaced everything in the brake system. There are no longer labor rates that are so high and clients who are told it will take 5 months to get to them. You wouldn't believe how simple it was.

A Dexter failed and need to be replaced
5/5

We purchased two of these to replace the OEM Dexter units on the 7K axles. The kit comes with all the bolts and connectors you need.

The best replacement part for OEMs
5/5

These were used on my toy hauler trailer as a set of four. Over the last 2000 miles, I've towed about 2000 miles and these brakes have been much more effective than the stock equipment.
