You absolutely can! I would just need to know what size bearings are currently on your trailer and what the lug pattern is to recommend you the correct electric brake hubs. This information isn't available online. If you could email it to me directly or comment below I would be happy to help you get set up.

Here are some other parts you're going to need:

7-Way and Junction Box - 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector item # H20043 and the Trailer Wiring Junction Box item # 3375601101

Electrical Wire - 10 Gauge, Brake Wire - per Foot item # 10-2-1

Hey there, thank you for the response. The trailer has sealed hubs that have bolt pattern 6x115MM. The sealed hub has a square flange that bolts to the axle. I does not have a spindle or removable bearings. Thanks

@JasonR I am sorry we are not going to have any replacement hubs with a 6x115MM bolt pattern. That's not a standard trailer lug pattern and it's more commonly found on vehicles.
