Lippert ABS Sensor Shim Kit for 12" Brake Assemblies – 5,200–8,000-lb. Hybrid Axles

Product Description

Ensure proper ABS sensor positioning and reliable braking performance with the Genuine Lippert ABS Sensor Shim Kit, designed for 12" brake assemblies on compatible 5,200–8,000-lb. Lippert hybrid trailer axles.

This kit provides the components needed to properly position the ABS wheel-speed sensor and maintain the correct air gap between the sensor and the ABS tone ring. Proper sensor alignment is essential for accurate wheel-speed detection, consistent ABS signal performance, and dependable trailer braking control.

The kit includes three precision-sized sensor shims with different thicknesses, allowing technicians to achieve the correct sensor clearance during installation or replacement. Each shim features a corrosion-resistant zinc finish and is color-coded for easy identification.

A dedicated air gap gauge is included to assist with proper sensor positioning, along with a self-tapping mounting screw for secure installation.

Ideal for servicing or replacing ABS sensors on compatible Lippert-equipped utility, equipment, and commercial trailers.
