Hey Mark! I checked with Pace American's website and it looks like your 2005 Pace American trailer has 6,000 lbs axles with electric brakes. To replace them, I recommend the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes - 12" - Left/Right Hand Assemblies - 6K item # 23-458-459.
The Dexter item # 23-458-459 is a left and right hand set of 12" x 2" brake assemblies that fit a 5 bolt mounting flange. These Nev-R-Adjust assemblies will eliminate the need for any manual adjustments down the line and they're made right here in the USA. You'll need one set per axle.
Since your trailer's 20 years old, I also recommend replacing the mounting hardware with item # BRKH12. This will do one axle's brakes so you'll need two sets.
If you have any additional questions go ahead and throw them into the comment box below.
