I would be happy to help!

Since your Dexter axle has a 7000lb rating you will need the Electric Brake Assemblies # 23-464-465 for self adjusting brakes, or # 23-180-181 for standard brakes that you will need to adjust on occasion.

I recommended the self adjusting versions as there is nothing to have to manually adjust in the future, but they are a bit more expensive so it will come down to how much you are looking to spend.

I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.

Absolutely! Assuming you have standard Dexter brakes on your 7000lb axle you will need the Replacement Shoe and Lining Kit for Dexter 12" x 2" Electric Brake Assembly - 7,000-lb # DX28FR. If you can send me a picture of the serial number of the brake assemblies located on the back of the brake assemblies, I would be happy to confirm the correct replacement shoes for you.
