Adding two # 23-47-48 7 inch electric trailer brake assemblies and two # 8-257-5UC3-EZ 7 inch hub/drums to your trailer axle will add right about 42 lbs to your axle. The hubs are 16 lbs apiece, the brake assemblies are right at 10 lbs for the set of two.
I've linked to install videos for the hubs and brake assemblies. I hope you'll find them helpful.
