We have 8,000 lb axle disc brake kits from Kodiak that you could use like the part # K2HR89DD which fit your Dexter 8k axles. Then for an actuator kit the HydraStar actuators are the best around.
For a kit that comes with this actuator, brake lines, and a breakaway kit you'd want the part # HBA16-252-82. This comes with everything you'd need to install the actuator and get it going on your trailer with the Kodiak kit I mentioned.
