Replacement Mounting Bracket for Tekonsha PowerTrac # 39523 Brake Controller

Question

Question:

Will this bracket fit a hidden hitchtekonsha powertrac controller? If not, do you have one that will? Holes on my controller are 1/8inch diam., 1/2inch center to center, 3/4inch from center of holes to top of the controller. Thanks for your help.

For your Tekonsha PowerTrac brake controller, you would want the smaller bracket, part # 2178. The # 5280 you referenced would be too wide, and wouldn't work.
