Both of the Timbren Axle-Less suspension systems with brakes that we offer have a 3500-lb capacity and both also feature electric brakes, not hydraulic brakes. Part # A35RD545E is a kit with 4-inch drop spindles and part # A35RS545E has straight spindles. Neither of these would have the capacity you need for your trailer.

We do offer a Timbren system rated for 5200-lbs, part # ASR5200S01, which includes 5-bolt brake flanges. With these you could use hydraulic brake assemblies # 23-325 (right) and # 23-324 (left) along with hub # 8-213-5UC1-EZ. The linked article may be helpful to you.
