Thank you for the picture!
I gave my contact at Dexter Axle the serial number off of your tag and he said that the replacement brakes for your #12 torsion axle include part # 23-180 for the left hand side and part # 23-181 for the right hand side.
If you would like to upgrade to the Nev-R-Adjust brake assemblies then you would need part # 23-464 for the left hand and part # 23-465 for the right hand. The advantage to the Nev-R-Adjust assemblies is that you don't have to manually adjust your brakes after the initial setting. They self adjust for less maintenance.
I have linked some installation videos for you to check out as well.
