Helpful Expert Reply:
Electric trailer brake assemblies on 8,000 pound axles are 12-1/4 by 3-3/8 inches such as # AKEBRK-8R for the right side and # AKEBRK-8L for the left. I have linked a video review for you. These brakes will fit on most standard hub-and-drum assemblies, including Dexter, Lippert (LCI), and AL-KO.
