That you for all of the information on your bearings!
Based on the dimensions of the you provided your trailer uses Inner Bearing # L68149 with matching race # L68111, and outer bearing # L44649 with matching race # L44610.
Since you mentioned that you current hubs have 5 wheel studs, you more than likely have the 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern i, but using the included article to measure your wheels will confirm this.
As long as you do have the 5 on 4-1/2 bolt pattern, I recommend the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K which includes the # L68149, # L44649, races, grease seal, wheel bolts, and lug nuts needed.
For a matching set of brake assemblies I recommend the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brake Kit # 23-468-469 which includes both the left and right side brake assemblies, and mounting hardware that will attach to your 4 bolt brake mounting flange. They are also self adjusting to keep you from having to adjust them manually as they wear down.
I included videos for the electric brake assemblies and hub and drum assemblies for you to take a look at.
