Helpful Expert Reply:

For 3,500 lb axles you will use 10 inch assemblies. My recommendation is the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,500 lbs # AKEBRK-35-SA for each axle. These assemblies will work well for your axles and are self adjusting. Then for hub/drum I recommend using the Trailer Hub and Drum Assembly - 3.5K E-Z Lube Axles - 10" Diameter - 5 on 4-1/2 - Pre-Greased # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K.

Then to install a brake controller like the P2 part # 90885 you would need to have a 4-way # C89FR installed if you don't have one and then use the # ETBC7 to convert it to a 7-way. This kit also comes with everything needed to wire up a brake controller as well.
