Expert Reply:
The etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes # AKEBRK-35-SA will allow you to upgrade to self-adjusting brakes on your Lippert LCI35 axle. These are the same size as your current drums so as long as they are in good condition you would not have to change to 2 of the Hub/Drums # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K.
If you are really wanting to improve your brakes to be the best you should consider Disc Brakes # DE66YR. Disc brakes are far superior and easier to maintain than drum brakes as well. To make this conversion you would also need an Actuator # DH94FR, Brake Line Kit # 15SI-BLKIT and a larger Breakaway Battery # BRW87FR.
