Video Transcript for Titan Brake Actuator T1242600 Review

Today we're going to take a look at the Titan replacement shock for the Titan model 6 and model 10 brake actuators. This part will allow you to replace a worn out or damaged sock on the Titan model 6 or model 10 brake actuators. The collapsed length, this is in the collapsed position, which is measured center to center, on this shock is going to be right at 6 inches. When you pull this out all the way, the extended length would measure 8 1/16. Now the inner diameter of the rings right here on the smaller one is 0.63 inches, from the larger one is 0.9 inches. The diameter of the outer body is 1.63 inches.

That should do it for the review on the Titan replacement shock for the Titan model 6 and model 10 brake actuators.

Looks like a great unit but was wrong shock for my Atwood replacement which was obsolite. Wrong style.



by:

This was to replace broken hydraulic shocks on a boat trailer with surge brakes. They went in smoothly and were easy to use in order to manually bleed the brake lines.



by:

Just replaced this on a Titan SurgeOMatic 6 hydraulic actuator on a 1997 EZLoader trailer rated at 7000 lbs 24-25 foot boat. The shock has same dimensions buts looks to be generic import. Orginal shock was a Gabriel. Cannot comment on the quality until I use it a while.



by:

Everything was delivered before promised and looks great. Will definitely order from you again.



by:

The parts came sooner than predicted. I'm in the process of installing them. They are an identical OEM part.



by:

Great product, solved my slamming trailer brake problem.



by:

Fits perfectly on my DICO Model 6. I ordered the wrong one first, but the nice folks at eTrailer made the exchange process easy! Will definitely buy from them again!



by:

Bought a used hydraulic brake trailer that needed Overhauled. Found my replacement parts @ etrailer! Shock works Great, thnx for carrying a Quality Replacement Part!!

Shock has held up well now that it’s over a year old. Thnx etrailer.com !!



by:

everything was as I expected,



by:

We needed to replace the shocks to make our trailer breaks work. We went on line and found Etrailer.com. What a find. First - Carla is a great asset to the company. She knows her stuff and made it a pleasure to work with her. With Carla's help we found the parts we needed, ordered them and on schedule they arrived. The trailer is up and running again. Fyi - Yes we did some price checking and found the parts locally but the price was almost 3Xs as much. Etrailer.com is at the top of my list for any future parts I might need for my company. Thank You Etrailer.com



by:

Easy to install on my factory trailer for my 2004 Four Winns Horizon 230. Greatly reduced the "pull-away thump".

Note: a short length of 3/4" copper water pipe was really helpful for holding the shock and the two "rollers" in alignment while positioning the shock and installing the pin that holds the big end to the trailer.



by:

Fit right into place. Buy an adapter for it to get from the 1/4" pipe thread at the rear of the master cylinder to the flare fitting of your brake line! Mine is 3/16 flare . The adapter from the old master c was different. Used a crescent wrench on the breakaway lever to bleed.



by:

Was redoing brake system on trailer. Ordered this replacement shock. Came in timely manner-- perfect fit. So far 1 year later still working great.



by:

Exact replacement parts for trailer with hydraulic brakes.
I have been rebuilding the complete brake system and springs on a 31ft long dual axle boat trailer. I have made multiple orders with etrailer and all of the parts have been exact fit. This has been the easiest rebuild I have ever done.



by:

better than original, thanks for speedy service
I am rebuilding a special built trailer made in 1973 for a Sea Camper Boat Will try to send picture of boat and trailer when restoration is complete. Just received tandem brake line kit



by:

Titan 10 hitch actuator, perfect! Came a day earlier than scheduled, installed without a hitch! No pun intended!! Great product, fit perfectly. Will do business agin and agin and again....



by:

This shock was for m1102 military trailer and I thought it would be next to impossible to find but e trailer had in in stock and delivered in a few days.



by:

Had been having difficult time finding the drum brake shock until I found your site. Not sure they are new or not or have been sitting on shelf a long time because of appearance. Perhaps drum brakes are now a dying breed. But the shocks are what I need to get back on the road.



by:

Helped with smooth out the hard starts and stops with the boat trailer.



by:

The product pictured matched my old unit exactly. Received item in a reasonable time. Was able to install the new unit with no problems. I need to complete reworking the rest of the brake system before I can test but so far everything looks great.



by:

Exact replacement for my 1970's U-haul surge brake system on my trailer.



by:

nice to be able to completely rebuild my brake system part is very well made and fit like they should would use again



by:

Thanks George your service was very good , I got the right part and prompt delivery, I'll call you first next time I need parts for my trailer
Once again Thank You for the excellent service.



by:

etrailer.com had the hard to find part that I was looking for in stock.



by:

The parts I bought for repair fit perfectly and worked properly after the repair. Thanks for supplying me the parts.

  • Common Replacement Parts for Model 10 Brake Actuators
    We carry several replacement parts for the Model 10 actuators, but no we do not carry kits that have them all together. Some of the more common parts we sell would be the part # T2374600 master cylinder for drum brakes or part # T4749501042 for disc. For a replacement shock part # T1242600. For the replacement chain to go along with the # T1054100 you would want the part # T0776800.

  • Difference Between Demco and Dexter Replacement Hydraulic Actuator Shocks
    The shocks you're wanting to compare have different sized eyelets and are designed for specific hydraulic actuators. Sometimes you can fit actuator replacement parts from one actuator to another but the majority of the time you need to use an exact replacement. Here are the actuator models that are designed for these shocks: - Replacement Shock for Demco Hydraulic Trailer Brake Actuators - Models DA10, DA16, DA20, and DA91 # DS12426 - Replacement Shock for Dexter Model 6 and 10 Brake...

  • Solution for Rough Activating Model 10 Surge Brake Actuator
    I wish there was a way to adjust the braking application of a surge brake actuator but that's not possible. Is it possible yours has a bad shock? How old is it? A lot of times a bad shock is the real reason a surge brake setup activates roughly. If you had a Model 10 actuator like the one you referenced the correct shock would be part # T1242600.

  • Should Shock Absorber # T1242600 in Titan Actuator Retract
    The shock in a surge coupler actuator like a Titan Model 6 should be extended (to its longest state) when it is at rest (when not under braking load). The shock will be compressed when you apply the brakes by the momentum of the trailer pushing forward on the coupler. The spring action of the shock is intended to return the coupler to its uncompressed state (extended to maximum length). The part you referenced, # T1242600, has just over 2-inches of travel between its compressed (retracted)...

  • Replacement Shock for Titan Model 10 Actuator to Fix Banging When Starting and Stopping
    If you are getting consistent banging when you are starting and stopping, it sounds like what you need is a new shock for your actuator. If you have the Model 10 Titan Brake Actuator # T4749600 you referenced, the replacement shock you need is the Replacement Shock for Titan Model 6 and 10 Brake Actuators # T1242600. I've added a link to a video review for you to check out as well.

  • How Are Roller Bearing Installed When Replacing Shock For Titan 6 Or 10 Brake Actuators
    On the Replacement Shock for Titan Model 6 and 10 Brake Actuators, part # T1242600, the roller bearings are installed on each side of the shock eyelet or end. I have attached the parts list and a diagram with a red arrow that shows how the bearings are installed. As you can see in the diagram, they are placed on each side of the shock eyelet.

    The rubber bearing # T1020900 and replacement nylon washer # T1861900 you referenced will go on the inner slide of the model 10 actuator. View number 3 and 48 on the diagram to the right. You can also view the instruction link attached page 9 when you are rebuilding your model 10. The replacement breakaway chain you will need is part # T0776800. I wouldn't recommend using just any type of chain other than original replacement parts. The reason is a medium duty chain may weigh substantially...

  • Replacement Shock for Reliable Brand Actuator on a Mastercraft Boat Trailer
    One of our replacement shocks might work for your Reliable actuator but we do not carry that particular brand so you would have to go by the measurements. We have several models including # 1844-2. This particular model fits Toledo brand actuators. When fully closed it measures 6-1/4 inches from center of hole to center of hole and when expanded, it measures approximately 8-1/4 inches from center of hole to center of hole.

  • Replacement Shock for Model 10/6 Actuator on Trailer
    The good news is that the Model 19 and Model 6 Titan/Dexter actuators use the same shock so you'll want the part # T1242600. The two big bolts on the side of the actuator need to come off so that you can slide out the inner member and access the shock.

  • Hydraulic Trailer Brakes Lock Up Moving Forward Using Titan Brake Actuator
    Disc brake actuators like # T4747200 do not have a check valve in them or a device to keep pressure in the system like drum brake actuators do. On a drum brake actuator there is a check valve inside the master cylinder that regulates the amount of pressure that goes back to the brakes. The wheel cylinders on hydraulic drum brakes will hold pressure as well. If the master cylinder and wheel cylinders (if the trailer has drum brakes) are fine then you could have some air in the system or...

  • Replacement Shock for Dexter Model 10 Actuator
    The Dexter actuator part # T4749600 is a Model 10 actuator so for a replacement shock the correct part number is the # T1242600. If you have a dual shock setup you might actually have a different actuator though.

  • Diagram to Use for Installling Titan Model 10 Actuator Shocks
    To replace the shock in your Titan model 10 actuator you are going to basically need to disassemble the actuator so that you have access to the shocks. Instead of describing to you how it comes apart I thought it would be more helpful if you had an exploded diagram of a model 10 actuator so that you can see how the # T1242600 would install.

  • Replacement Shock for Surge Coupler on Zieman Boat Trailer
    If your trailer surge coupler uses a lockout key to allow reversing then it is operating normally. Some Titan brand couplers use this type of key-operated manual lockout. Inserting the key is required for these couplers even on level ground. If not, then it is possible that the shock inside your surge actuator may be malfunctioning. The shock serves to return the surge coupler to its extended "brakes off" position unless there is plenty of force on it from your reversing the tow vehicle....

  • What is the Retracted and Extended Length on Replacement Trailer Actuator Shock # T1242600
    I went out to the warehouse and pulled replacement shock # T1242600 to confirm the measurements and where they are taken. The measurements are from eye center to eye center. So when compressed you will have a center to center length of 6 inches and when extended it is 8-1/16 inches. I have included a picture showing the measurements for you.

  • How the Shock Absorber Works on a Surge Brake Actuator
    The Replacement Shock for Titan Model 6 and 10 Brake Actuators part # T1242600 only works one way. When the brakes are applied it eases the movement of the trailer forward onto the brake actuator. There is no return spring, the tow vehicle would then pull the actuator to reload the shock. For example, if the trailer was unhooked from the tow vehicle and you were able to depress the actuator, it would not extend back until manually pulled back out.

  • 1993 Trail-Rite Trailer Actuating Coupler Replacement Shock Absorber Needed
    For your 1993 Trail-Rite trailer, I'm not quite sure what you mean for shock absorber in the tongue. I'm making and assumption that you have a brake actuating coupler and need a replacement shock for it like # T1242600. Because I don't know what coupler you have, I am linking the page to all of your options. You may need to take some measurements or even contact the manufacturer to get the information needed if the name brand and model is not on the coupler itself.

    What you described sounds like a bad shock in the Titan model 6 actuator you have. For a replacement you would want the part # T1242600 which is a confirmed fit. Actuators shocks are designed to slow the movement of the actuator so that you don't experience the jerking that you described. When they go back they allow the actuator to move too quickly which causes what you described.
