When it comes to your trailer shaking when the brakes are applied, it sounds like you may have a clogged brake line.
In this case I recommend bleeding the brakes. I have included a video which goes over the process. I would also check your brake adjustment.
After completing these steps, if you are still experiencing issues send me an email and we can continue the troubleshooting process.
