The Dexter Electric Trailer Brake Kit w/ Parking Brakes - 12" - Left and Right Hand Assemblies - 6K # 23-112-113 does use a cam action lever like what you stated, but they will be compatible with your current cable system. You will simply remove the cable and attach it to the back of these assemblies at the mounting location. This will absolutely work with the cabling you have pictured.

The two springs on the outside of the Titan Master Cylinder Assembly #T1777405 that you referenced are actually pretty integral to its operation. What will happen is that the steel (silver colored) bracket that mounts to the coupler housing will move…

Answer 7

One easy solution would be to have the Lock N Roll #336TS528 welded to your 2 inch wide trailer tongue if the bolt holes don't line up. This is the most common way to install couplers as lining up bolt holes isn't always possible.

The holes on the Lock N Roll #336VS503505 are spaced 2" apart center on center, so you'll have 4.25" at the lowest/highest and then roughly 2" rise/drop and 0" rise/drop in the various positions it offers.
