I have attached a link to a helpful article that explains everything that is needed when adding hydraulic disc brakes to your trailer.

In addition to a kit like part # K2R1258L12 you will need to make sure you have the right brake mount flange, and you will need to add hydraulic brake lines to your trailer. You will also need a surge brake actuator like part # T4750820 installed on your trailer frame.

I have attached links to the brake lines we offer, and to the actuators we offer.
