This is a pretty simple do-it-yourself project to help tune up these calipers – cleaning the gunk out of them when they get dirty. I also discuss how to reset the dial so that it is pointing straight up – when these get dirty, sometimes the gear will jump a tooth on the rack and the dial will not zero out with it pointing up.

Today we’re going to review part number 7-75. This is the Brake Mounting Bolt for 7″ and 10″ Brake Assemblies. This bolt is used to attach your brake assembly to your trailer. This is a grade 5 bolt, as you can see it has the three indicator marks, that means a grade 5. The overall length of this bolt from the top of the hex head to the very end is a 11/2″, the threaded portion is going to be a 1 1/4″, the bolt size is 7/16″ diameter by 20 size, the 20 means 20 threads per inch. This needs to be used with the lock washer, part number 5-8.
