Hello Phillip. The brake assemblies rated between 5,200 lbs and 7,000 lbs are all the same size. They use the same 5 bolt pattern for the mounting flange and the brake shoes are 12" x 2". So, yes, you can use Dexter 7,000 lb brake assemblies on your 6,600 lb Lippert axle. I recommend the Dexter Electric Trailer Brakes # 23-180-181.
