Replacement Titan Model 60 Actuator for Disc Brakes

Question

Question:

I currently have the # T4332900 Titan Model 60 on my trailer and recently upgraded to disc breaks. I now need to swap out actuators and would like a direct replacement. Do they make this actuator for disc breaks? If so what is the part number?

We have exactly what you are looking for. The disc brake version of your current Titan Model 60 is part # DM62VR. This actuator fits a 3 inch wide channel, and has a maximum weight capacity of 7,000 lbs. The coupler is compatible with 1-7/8, 2 inch of 50mm trailer balls.

This actuator will supply the higher psi needed to actuate your new disc brakes properly.

I reached out to EZ Loader who verified your spindles will require the 1.687 Seal #168255TB. So you would need to change out the seal to use the Kodiak Disc Brakes Kit #KOD49FR you found.
