1999 Safari 27' - Which Brake Drums?

I'm kind of confused. I'm replacing my brake assemblies using the full backing plate. I know I need the Dexter 12X2 backing plate (I'm going with self-adjuster), but I have some confusing on which brake drums. It currently has "Reliable" drums on it model HD 1206. Does anyone know what the correct Dexter model of brake drums is for this trailer. BTW the Airstream part number for the brake drum is 3160121. As noted in the title, I have a 1999 Safari 27' with (I believe) AL-KO axles. Al-Ko has be bought out by Dexter. I called Dexter but they can't cross reference the Reliable#. Also, I have found the Reliable Hub on the internet, and I could order those, but how do I make sure the bearings will fit the axle on my trailer? Thanks.

Follow up: I called Airstream (duh) and they were very helpful. They gave me the correct Dexter part number for my trailer which is 008-201-05. I even found a place about an hour away up near Lancaster, PA that has them at a good price.
