Helpful Expert Reply:
You will need to take a couple of measurements to find the correct brake assemblies for your 1988 enclosed trailer. You will need to find a brake assembly that works with your brake mounting flange and also with the drum diameter and depth. I have attached a photo with the areas noted that need to be measured.
I have attached a link to a helpful article that explains what is needed to add electric brakes to a trailer, and also a video that shows how to remove and replace trailer brake shoes.
Once you get the measurements we need, just let me know and I will be happy to make some recommendations that will work for you.
