For a disc brake kit that would for your 7,000 lb Dexter axles that you have on your 2015 Keystone Trailer the Kodiak Kit part # K2HRCM1337-9DAC would be an excellent option. These will fit the spindles on your trailer and have a Dacromet coating which will fight corrosion for a very long time.
For an electric over hydraulic kit that comes with lines and a breakaway system the best option is the HydraStar part # CAR-HBA16-2. This is the quickest reacting and most reliable system on the market so we recommend it.
