We have exactly what you're needing!
For replacing your hub/drum assemblies you need the kit # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K (2 per axle) and then for the brakes you need the kit # AKFBBRK-35-D (1 per axle).
The actuator is a little different simply because there are multiple styles for installing the actuator on your trailer coupler so you'll want to look through these options to see which A-60 best matches your current A-60 actuator:
- Top Mount 3-Bolt # 099-175-00
- Top Mount 3-Bolt # DX33FR
- Front Mount 4-Bolt # DX27FR
- Weld-On # DX53FR
None of these actuators come with a lockout, but that's okay because these brakes are free backing which means you can freely back up your trailer without the actuator pushing back and causing the brakes to lock up.
Finally for brake lines I really like the rubber hoses because they are more flexible than the standard metal lines. To install a complete new brake line kit you'll need part # 18SI-BLKIT for a single axle or part # 20TA-BLKIT for a tandem axle setup.
