Hey Bill, thanks for reaching out!
Are we installing brakes from scratch? Or are you needing to replace brakes that are currently on the axle?
Also, what is the weight rating of your axle (found on the tag at the front of the trailer or in the middle of the axle) and does your trailer already have brake flanges near the spindles? Check out the #84 E-Z Lube Spindle w/ Brake Flange # TRU74FR to see what I'm talking about.
Let me know the information I asked about above and I'll be happy to help you out!
