Thanks for all of the details on your axle as that makes picking out the correct components very easy on me! Since you have a Dexter 3,500 lb axle with a 5 on 4-1/2 inch bolt pattern you'd need the hub/drum part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K which matches that perfectly and then the brake assembly set # 23-26 for the left hand side and # 23-27 for the right hand side.
To wire up the assemblies you'll want to use 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 which we sell by the foot.
