Hey Garrett! With a 387A outer bearing you may be able to use the # DX68QR you were looking at which uses the same 9-27 drum. Make sure the 387A was the outer, and not the inner bearing. Your inner bearing would be the 395S and then for the seal it is a 10-56 with an inner diameter of 3.125". I don't know of a pre-greased option with the bearings and seals installed for 10k hubs so this is the best we can offer.
For brake assemblies you can use the Dexter Nev-R-Adjust Electric Trailer Brakes # 23-438-439 or for hydraulic the Dexter Hydraulic Trailer Brakes - Duo Servo - Self-Adjusting # 23-404-405. Both are designed to fit a 12-1/4" x 4" drum like the 9-27.
What are you hauling next with the deckover?

Hey Garrett, how did things go with the Dexter hub and drum assembly for your Eager Beaver trailer? Did the 387A and 395S bearing combo end up matching your setup? Your update could make it easier for others working on similar heavy-duty axles.
