We have just what you would need. For idler hubs you would first need to start with the part # 8-214-5UC1 (if you don't have these already) and then to install a disc brake kit specifically for these hubs you would need the part # K2R1058D11 for each axle. This is a Dexter 10k oil bath setup just like what you have.
For an electric over hydraulic drum actuator for your trailer you would want the part # HBA16-252-82. That comes with everything electronically.
For a 30 foot long tandem brake line kit you would need the part # HS496-251.
On your truck you would need to have a brake controller installed on it that is compatible with electric over hydraulic brake setups like the Prodigy P2 part # 90885.
