Replacing Drum Brake Actuator on Boat Trailer With Swing Away Coupler TDE LP7000
Question:
I sent an email earlier I need a replacement for my tiedown engineering lp7000 with drum brakes. This unit sits inside swing arm trailer. Bolt holes are 3 1/4 apart. Just wanna make sure I order right part. Old one has reverse valve also.

Expert Reply:
There is not going to be a direct replacement for your exact setup as Tie Down Engineering no longer manufacturers these. You will need to have the Actuator LP7000 cut out of your swing away front coupler. Then you will be able to weld in a section of 3" wide channel tongue which you will then be able to attach the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM72VR. Finally you will then use the Reverse Lockout Solenoid Kit # DM5836 since you have the reverse lockout valve.
