Can Surge Brake Actuator Rated for Two Brake Axles Work with One Axle
Question:
Would it be an issue to use the surge actuator for the twin axle brakes on a trailer with only a single axle with brakes? This is the 7500lb inner member for disc brakes. This is a trailer used with a 20’ fiberglass bass boat and it does have two axles, but only one has brakes.

Hey Eric, there there would be no issue with using the Dexter Surge Actuator part # DX56FR with a trailer that has a single brake axle.
