It sounds like you're saying you have a 6 lug wheel bolt pattern on your 2006 Sunnybrook Brookside 275FWRKS. The typical brake mounting flange on a 5,200 lb axle is going to have a 5 bolt pattern. Assuming that is the case, you can use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 5,200 lbs to 7,000 lbs # AKEBRK-6. If you would like self-adjusting brakes the # AKEBRK-7-SA is also available. If you have a 6 bolt pattern on your brake mounting flange then we do not have anything that would fit that pattern.
