To replace the electric brakes on your 2019 Grand Design Solitude 375RES you will first need disc brakes. For your 7K axles I highly recommend the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit # K2HR712DS because it has a dacromet coating and stainless steel calipers which gives them great corrosion resistance. The kit includes enough parts for brakes on 1 axle so you will need 2 of them.

For brake lines I recommend the HydraStar Hydraulic Brake Line Kit # HS496-252 which gives you a steel main line but then uses flexible hoses where they connect to your brakes so that there is less chance of them becoming damaged when you're driving over rough roads.

Then to complete your system you need the actual electric-over-hydraulic (EOH) actuator. For this I highly recommend the HydraStar Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator w/ Breakaway and 7-Way RV Harness # HS381-9067. Not only does this give you one of the best EOH actuators on the market (due to the incorporated ventilation so it can be mounted just about everywhere) but it also gives you a 7-Way with the junction box and a breakaway kit.

If you don't already have a brake controller then I highly recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR because it gives you proportional and user-control brake controller options while still remaining out of the way so that your dash doesn't look too crowded. If you are towing with the 2015 Ford F-350 that you input for your vehicle and if it has a 7-Way installed then all you need to connect this to your vehicle is the Adapter # 331-TPH-005. Let me know if you have a different vehicle and I can let you know what adapter you need.

Attached are some review videos and helpful articles that you can reference.
