Trailer breakaway kits are not trailer-specific but a replacement part like the pin and cable does need to match your current breakaway setup.

We have such items for Hopkins, Tekonsha, Curt and others and you'll see them all on the linked page. Just match the pin and cable by brand. Here are popular examples of this replacement part:

Hopkins # HM20051
Tekonsha # 2010-A
Bright Way # 3802350
Curt # C52020

You can also just replace the entire switch with # 3802348 if you prefer. The switches work with any brand.
