Hi Jason; it sounds like you have a Quality Trailer Products 3,500 lb axle. Check and see if you have # L68149 inner and # L44649 outer bearings. You also need to make sure you have a brake flange on the axle. Assuming you do, you can use the # AKEBRK-35-SA for brakes along with # BRKH10B and then the # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K for a hub and drum assembly. You will also need the # HS381-9000 to add a 7-way with # 10-1-1 to run wire to the brakes. Then for a breakaway you can use the # 3802308. Do you have a brake controller already?
