For lighting you can use the diode kit, # RM-15267, and not have to worry about cutting into the taillight housing. This will splice into your taillight wiring to allow your tow vehicle to control the taillight assemblies of the towed vehicle. This comes with a round 6-way connector that you will install on the front of your towed vehicle and enough coiled wire to go from there to the RV.

This will work great with your Blue Ox Patriot kit as well.

I attached an install video as well.

The best option we offer for your dump trailer is the Erickson Mesh Tarp and Truck Bed Cover part #EM57059 which measures 12' wide x 16' long. It's not the exact dimensions you wanted but it will still cover most of the area you need it…

The brake assemblies you have are 7k Dexter assemblies that are 12 inch by 2 inch in size. The part number #AKEBRK-7-SA will work as a great replacement set. This includes assemblies for both sides of your trailer that are self adjusting.
