Hey Jay, thanks for reaching out!
Yes, you can technically go with the 7K Brake Kit # 23-464-465, but since your axles are rated for 5.2K, I recommend picking up the 6K Brake Kit # 23-458-459 instead. This kit has magnets that aren't quite as strong, so you get a braking performance that's geared much better for your trailer weight.
Is there anything else you're needing to update/upgrade on your RV while you're at it?
