Helpful Expert Reply:
Dexter electric brake assemblies, including the # 23-458-459 set you've looked at are indeed compatible with Lippert axles. Lippert and Dexter brake assemblies share the same bolt pattern and overall dimensions, so they will be interchangeable on your Forest River 5th wheel. For mounting hardware, use the # BRKH12 kit. One kit will install two brake assemblies so for a tandem axle, you'd need two of them.
