Thank you for the photos!

To replace your Atwood 85738 actuator I recommend checking out the Demco 7K actuator which comes configured for Drum Brakes # DM72VR as well as Disc Brakes # DM62VR and a 2" hitch ball.

This system is a bolt on installation but an experienced welder would be able to cut off your current actuator and weld either one of these on in it's place.
