Electric Brake R&R - Recommended mfg?

Hello all,
new here.
I'm needing to replace the electric brakes on my trailer soon.
Does anyone have a strong recommendation or buyer-beware of a particular brake kit manufacturer I should look into?
I could do eTrailer but there are also alot of kits on Amazon or eBay.
mine uses 3.5K axle. I haven't pulled the drum to measure the specific drum/shoe sizes yet.

thanks

quick close out. ebay and amazon pricing is similar at $178-184 w/ shipping, pre tax, per pair.
eTrailer is best at $156 free shipping, pre tax, per pair. so, thats where I'll be ordering mine.
