Hello Steve, thanks for reaching out. The 3,500 lb axles use the standard 10" x 2-1/4" brakes, and for that I recommend the etrailer Electric Trailer Brakes - Self-Adjusting - 10" - Left/Right Hand Assemblies - 3.5K # AKEBRK-35-SA. We also offer a pre-grease hub for a 3,500 lb axle, part # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K. This comes with a pre-greased hub, bearings, seals, races a grease cap and lug nuts.
For a breakaway I recommend the Bright Way Trailer Breakaway Kit with 0.5-Amp Charger and 5 Ah Battery # 3802339.
You may also need a 7-way trailer harness such as part # H20046. Keep in mind that you will need an electric trailer brake controller such as the Tekonsha P3 # 90195 in the cab of your vehicle. We have a guide that goes over adding electric brakes to your trailer, and you will find it linked below in the "featured help information" section. Feel free to reach out if you have any other questions for me.

I was told that I cannot put electric brakes on boat trailer because after first time iback in water they would short out. Are your electric brakes waterproof?
