Hey Michael, we have the Dexter trailer axle part # 7359765-EB which covers everything you need except it has electric brake assemblies that come with it. To swap to hydraulic brake assemblies you'd need to replace what the axle comes with with the part # AKFBBRK-35 which is a set of free-backing assemblies.
