Which Hydrastar Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator is for Use with Drum Brakes and for w Disc Brakes
Question:
Is there a pressure reducer available for this kit to allow it to be used on drum brakes? Id like to be able to upgrade to disc brakes at some point if I need to. Thx.

I really wish there was an easy way to go from a drum to disc brake Hydrastar actuator but you would have to replace the entire actuator. None of the other actuators we carry have this ability either unfortunately.
The part # HS381-9067 that you referenced would be the kit to use with disc brakes and then for drums you would need # HS381-9066 which is the drum brake kit equivalent.
