Expert Reply:
I reached out the the manufacturer and found that they have two possible axles that meet that criteria. One is definitely more likely your application than the other, but I will give you both brake assembly options.
For a 3500 lb axle, you will want the Electric Trailer Brake Kit - Self-Adjusting - 10" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 3,500 lbs # AKEBRK-35-SA. This will give you both the left and right assemblies. There is a sticker to help you with which assembly fits which side. These assemblies are self adjusting, so only an initial adjustment is needed at install and you can use the adjusting spoon # W80630. If you need the mounting hardware, it is # BIK-00.
For a 5200 lb axle, you will want the 12 inch assemblies # AKEBRK-7-SA. For mounting hardware you will need # 7-5, # 38N, and # 38LW.
