While we don't have a kit that includes everything for a tandem 5,200 lb trailer we do have all the components separately like the part # K2HR526D for the hubs and rotors. Then for the rest of the components you'd just need the part # CAR-HBA16-2.

The HydraStar kits have the best actuators due to how quick they respond as well as the most reliable.
