The Dexter D75, 7500# axles that we donated to the MOC for their raffle have 12 1/4 x 2.50 brakes (compared to the 12x2 used on regular 7000# axles), the corresponding larger hubs that have an 8k rating and bearing package, 4k leaf springs with bronze bushings, and heavy wall tubing. The donation also included installation in Elkhart at our company headquarters, or free shipping to the installer of the winning bidders choice. The value given was a ballpark figure, and not an exact price.
