The Kodiak Hydraulic Brake Line Kit, part # 20TA-BLKIT would be a great fit for your Trail-rite trailer.

From my research I found your trailer is 21 ft 8 inches long and has tandem axles. The 20TA-BLKIT is 20 ft long and has all of the hydraulic lines and fittings needed to run your lines from the actuator to the brakes.
