Helpful Expert Reply:
For your 8,000 lbs Lippert axles you will want the Kodiak Disc Brake Kit item # K2HR89DD. This kit will replace one axles worth of brakes.
Since you currently have electric brakes you will need a the Hydrastar Vented Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes item # HS481-8067 and a Brake Line Kit item # HS496-252.
You will want to make sure your trailer is rated for electric over hydraulic brakes as well.
