Expert Answers about Chevrolet Brake Actuator


  • Troubleshooting No Brakes On A Trailer With TieDown 660 Hydraulic Actuator
  • Hello Josh. The TieDown 660 Hydraulic Actuator is a surge brake actuator. The Dexter Adapter Module # DX35FR is only for electric-over-hydraulic actuators, so this is not going to solve your problem. If the brakes are not functioning, I would have to suspect a problem with the surge brake actuator or potentially a brake line. I suggest inspecting the trailer and the actuator. You will be looking for any clogged or damaged brake lines. Also check your actuator to make sure it is moving fluid...

  • Recommended Replacement Actuator for a GDC 80 Brake Actuator
  • Mike, unfortunately there aren't any replacements for your GDC 80 brake actuator so you will have to replace it. I recommend going with the Dexter Zinc-Plated Brake Actuator # T4747200 which is made for disc brakes and has the same 8,000 lb capacity your current actuator has.

  • Recommended Replacement Brake Actuator for a Tie Down Engineering 6,600 lb Actuator
  • Hey Jim, for your Tie Down Engineering 6,600 lb actuator I recommend the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM72VR with the reverse solenoid # DM5836. This actuator has a 7,000 lb capacity, works with 2" hitch balls and drum brakes, and will work with 3" trailer frames.

  • Solution for Replacement Master Cylinder on DJP Brake Cylinder
  • The # TK71-756-00 is designed for Dexter brake actuators. The only way to identify it is with markings like the DJP you found. I searched for DJP brake cylinders and it came up as Wenzhou Dongqi Auto Parts. We do not have a replacement master cylinder designed for this. The only solution I can offer is a replacement brake actuator like the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM72VR for drum or # DM62VR for disc brakes.

  • Replacement Option For Tie Down 80LP Actuator For Disc Brakes
  • Hey Dan; there isn't an actuator that will slide in place for a replacement of your Tie Down 80LP, you'd have to go with a new actuator. From what I can find, this actuator bolts onto a 3" wide channel tongue, so you can replace it with the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout # DX89FR.

  • Replacement Surge Brake Actuator for 2008 Ranger Trailer With Tie Down Model 70 LP Swing Away Tongue
  • As your 2008 Ranger Boat Trailer has a swing away tongue with the Tie Down Model 70LP brake actuator the Dexter Disc # DX73FR or Drum # DX67FR actuator is likely going to be your best option. Both of these are a weld on application so you would need to have your current actuator removed and the new one welded on in place on the swing away portion of the trailer tongue.

  • Replacement Inner Member for Dexter DX7.5L Actuator
  • It might be but I do not have any way of knowing what is currently on your 2018 Ranger Trail tandem axle trailer.

  • Replacement Actuator for 2002 Ranger Trail Bass Boat Trailer
  • If you need a replacement tongue that isn't something that we offer. You can see if the manufacturer offers a replacement since it looks like it folds. If they don't have a replacement you would have to take it to a shop that could add a new tongue along with a coupler hinge kit like # FHDPB330301 to keep the folding functionality. I can't do much with the VIN but it does look like that has a Dexter A-60 in the end of it based on the pictures I found. If you're able to remove the actuator...

  • Could Dexter Replacement Inner Coupler Member DX99FR Work on 2007 Mastercraft Boat Trailer
  • Hey Erik, so if the coupler on your 2007 MasterCraft boat trailer is labeled a UFP or a Dexter actuator and looks like the # DX99FR then yes this inner member is correct replacement to get it working again.

  • Availability Of Replacement Parts Or user Manual For A Demco AT7000P Car Trailer

  • Recommended Replacement Axle and Brakes for An Axis Products 93" Trailer Axle
  • Hey Eddie, I do have an option for you but the closest axle we offer for what you're looking for is the Trailer Axle Beam with Easy Grease Spindles # e93GR which measures 94" at the hub face and 79" at the spring center. Since this'll be used to replace a trailer axle with a 93" hub face, the wheels/tires are going to stick out a 1/2" more on each side At this point, the spring seats can then be cut and rewelded. To convert your presumably surge brakes to electric, you're going to need...
