Hey Julian,
We do not have a full kit with everything needed all together but we do have the parts individually. For brakes I recommend the etrailer self adjusting brake kit # AKEBRK-35-SA. This comes as both a left and right hand so all that you need for one axle. The assemblies come pre assembled so all you need to do is slide them on and bolt them down.
When adding brakes you will need to get a hub and drum assembly as well. For that I will need to know what your bolt pattern is on the wheels to make sure I find you the right one. If you can let me know your bolt pattern I can get you those parts. Additionally when adding electric brakes you are also going to need a brake controller installed in the tow vehicle. Let me know the year make and model vehicle you are towing with and I can recommend a brake controller for you.
I recommend the Bright Way Breakaway Kit # 3802346 for your trailer as well as a back up if your trailer were to ever come unhitched.
Let me know a little more about your bolt pattern and tow vehicle and I can get the rest of those parts sent your way.
