It sounds like you're trying to decide between the # HSE7K-T1SO and the # HSE7K-T1 for your 2017 Jayco North Point. I recommend the # HSE7K-T1SO with the over-the-hub rotors for the cost savings. There is no real difference between the two aside from the design. Also, if something happens to a rotor you can just replace the rotor instead of the whole assembly.

I'm assuming you have a hub and drum assembly on there already for your brakes so you will also need idler hubs instead. For replacement hubs you can use the Easy Grease Trailer Idler Hub Assembly for 7,000-lb E-Z Lube Axles # AKIHUB-865-7-2-EZ-K.
