For your Dexter axle, you will want the Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,000 lbs # K23-472-473-00. These assemblies are 10" diameter x 1-1/2" wide.

If you just want the individual components:
# BP04-065 for brake shoes
# K71-362-00 for brake spring set
# BP01-110 for brake magnet
