Helpful Expert Reply:
I recommend upgrading to a fully stainless steel hub and brake set. First you will need the Kodiak Trailer Hub # KH84545S. This will need Bearings # L68149 & # L44649 and a Grease Seal # 58846 for each of your hubs. You will then be able to add the DeeMaxx Disc Brake Kit # DE72FR which has stainless steel rotors, calipers, mounting brackets and even the brake pads have stainless steel backing plates.
If you can provide me with some dimensions on your trailer I can better help you find the best brake lines for your trailer.
