• Replacement Solution for UFP A-60 Breakaway Key and Cable
  The Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator part # DX89FR for disc or part # DX33FR for drum will work to replace both a UFP A-60 or A-75 Brake Actuator since we don't carry the UFP replacement breakaway setup.

• Replacement Hydraulic Brake Actuator for Homemade Trailer With Short Tongue
  I'm assuming you have hydraulic drum brakes and actually need the brake actuator. If that is the case, you're looking at either extending the tongue so you can bolt on an actuator like the # DX33FR or welding one on like the # DEX94FR. Both have a 7,500 lb capacity and are compatible with drum brakes. If it were me, I would stick with the bolt on option and get a local trailer shop to extend the tongue a bit. This would also make for an easier swap in the future should you need to replace...

• Can Dexter Drum Actuator have Electric Reverse Lock Out Added It
  Dexter doesn't put reverse lock outs on their drum brake actuators so you'd need to add the part # DM5404 do a new actuator. The part # DX97FR is just the inner section of an actuator though. For the actuator you'd need the part # DX33FR.

• Replacement Straight Tongue Actuator Recommendation for 2003 Ranger Boat Trailer
  It looks like your 2003 Ranger 521 boat trailer has a straight tongue coupler so you should be able to use something like the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator # DX33FR. This is a bolt on application that fits a 2" hitch ball and has a weight capacity of 7,500 lbs. The bolt holes sit down 3/4" from the top of the trailer tongue and then they are 3" apart on center. If you have an actuator with different specs let me know what those are and I can see if we have something that works for you.

• Recommended Weld-On Replacement For An Atwood 82541 Surge Brake Actuator
  Hi Doug, If the tongue really is C-Channel and not a box the you'd likely need to first weld a piece of metal to fill in the gap on the open end for the new actuator to weld onto. You could go with an actuator like the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout # DX63FR. You'd weld this to the top of the channel, but there aren't welding instructions included. This actuator has a 7,500lb capacity, fits a 2" hitch ball, and comes with an electric reverse lockout solenoid so...

• Can Reverse Lockout Be Added to Atwood Surge Brake Actuator
  I do have an option for you though we don't have any reverse lockout kits for Atwood surge brake actuators as they are no longer in business. Therefore, your best option would be to remove and replace the actuator with an option like the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator part # DX89FR for disc or part # DX33FR for drum which both have lockouts. Please note, you will need to have the old coupler cut off since it's welded.

• Replacement Hydraulic Drum Brakes, Hub/Drum, and A-60 Actuator for 3,500 lb Axles on Boat Trailer
  We have exactly what you're needing! For replacing your hub/drum assemblies you need the kit # AKHD-545-35-EZ-K (2 per axle) and then for the brakes you need the kit # AKFBBRK-35-D (1 per axle). The actuator is a little different simply because there are multiple styles for installing the actuator on your trailer coupler so you'll want to look through these options to see which A-60 best matches your current A-60 actuator: - Top Mount 3-Bolt # 099-175-00 - Top Mount 3-Bolt # DX33FR ...

• What Alternate Brake Actuator Can I Substitute for My Dico Aero 6000 Brake Actuator?
  I have a solution for you that will work as a replacement. Unfortunately, we do not carry the correct replacement shock T4502000 for your Dico Aero 6000 actuator because it has been discontinued from production. I went ahead and reached out to Dexter axle (the makers of the Dico Aero 6000), and they said that, sadly, the only thing to do would be to replace the actuator itself. I know that this can be frustrating to hear, but the good news is that we do have some great options. For a replacement...

• Front of Housing to Edge of Fill Cap Dimension of Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuating Coupler
  The front of the housing to the edge of the fill cap closest to the front of the coupler is 7-7/8 inches, as shown in the provided photo. You'd be better off mounting the sticker on the top or side of the trailer tongue behind the actuating coupler. You wouldn't want to apply the sticker over the junction between the housing and the portion of the actuator that modes, as it would destroy your sticker.

• Does the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator Have a Lockout
  The Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator part # DX33FR comes with a manual lockout key for reversing. That said, if you would like for this to be done automatically you can simply add an electric lockout, the Solenoid Valve part # T4748800. That said, you'll also need a 5-way on the trailer and vehicle for this so if you don't already have one I recommend the Hopkins Endurance 5-Way Flat Trailer Wiring Kit part # HM47890. The Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator is made in the USA.
