For your trailer that has Dexter 7,000 lb capacity axles the Kodiak Disc Brake kit I recommend is the part # K2HR712D. You'll need the seal part # RG06-070 and the bearings part # 25580 and # 14125A and you'll be set. I recommend this kit because all of the components are Dacromet coated which means they'll do an excellent job resisting corrosion.
Then for the actuator kit you'd want the HydraStar setup part # HBA16-252-82. This comes with the needed brake lines and breakaway kit to install. I recommend this kit so highly because it is the most reliable and it works the quickest as well. I attached an install video for more info as well.
