Hey Nicholas,
I reached out to Dexter with that axle information you gave me and they were able to provide me with what brakes and bearings you need to replace them on your trailer. For the brakes we have a kit with both the LH and RH brakes so you can replace the whole axle with # 23-458-459. The correct bearings and seal needed for your axle is bearing kit # BK3-300. This includes the bearing, races and seals for one hub on your axle.
Have you repacked bearings before? The brake assemblies just slide on but repacking bearings is a bit more complicated.
