In order to recommend some brake assemblies, I would need to know the axle capacity (2000, 3500, or 6000 lb) and the drum diameter. It appears that you were looking at the 10 inch self adjusting brake assembly for 3500 lb axles. If you indeed have the 10 inch drum with the 3500 lb axle, this brake assembly should work great for you. You would need the Right Hand Assembly, part # AKEBRK-35R-SA and the Left Hand Assembly, part # AKEBRK-35L-SA. You will need a left and right hand for each axle.
These self adjusting brake assemblies work great, and will ensure that your trailer brakes are always in perfect adjustment. I have linked a few videos for your reference.
