Keystone Brake Actuator Installation And Review Videos
Hey neighbors. It's Brad here at etrailer, and today we're taking a look at installing the hydro star electric over hydraulic actuator for disc brakes on a 2020 Keystone Montana. Now the actuator is really the meat and potatoes of a disc brake conversion. So if you're going from your drums to disk, you do need to have hydraulics to be able to have those pistons compressed. And that's what your actuator does. It's simply just a pump that has your brake fluid in it. more

Hi there, Keystone owners. Today, on your 2019 Keystone Montana, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install HydraStar's electric over hydraulic brake actuator and line kit. Along with that, we're going to be using Kodiak's disc brake kit.And this is what our actuator looks like when it's installed. Our hydraulic actuator is going to provide up to 1600 PSI of hydraulic fluid to our brakes at the back, which is optimal for our disc brake system, which requires higher pressure than a drum brake system would. With this kit, we do get everything we need to convert our trailer over from electric brakes to hydraulic brakes. Because in addition to having our actuator here, we also get our brake line kit, which is designed for a tandem axle setup. more

Hi there, fifth wheel owners. Today on your 2017 Keystone Montana, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install Hydrastar's 1600 PSI brake line and actuator kit. To help us complete this installation, we'll be connecting it to Code DX 00:00:15 13-inch disc brakes at the back.One of the things I did want to mention is that this kit also comes with a new breakaway switch, as well as a breakaway switch battery. Our customer already had one installed and you can see it's a nice new one he just had put on, so we're not going to be replacing that today since it's already new components. But you'll get one included with your kit so you can easily get these installed, it's just a couple of wires, so it's really easy. You can follow along with us though, because we'll be hooking up to the customer's battery, but the process is going to be basically the same.We'll begin our installation by getting our actuator mounted, because we need to know where we're going to have to route all of our lines and our wiring to. more

Hi there fifth wheel owners. Today on your 2017 Keystone Montana, we're going to be taking a look at and showing you how to install Hydrastar's 1600 PSI hydraulic brake actuator. To help us with this installation and get everything hooked up and working properly, we're also going to be using Hydrastar's tandem axle brake line kit, as well as Kodiak's 13 inch disc brake kit. If you need a triple axle kit, Hydrastar does have a line kit available for you as well here etrailer.com. We'll begin our installation by getting our actuator mounted, because we need to know where we're going to have to route all of our lines and our wiring to. We've decided to mount ours in the front compartment here, right in the very front. more

Tuson ActuLink Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes Installation- Video
Connor: Hey guys, how's it going Connor here today at etrailer.com. We're going to be taking a look at the Tuson electric over hydraulic actuator for disk brakes here on our Keystone Cougar. So in order to change from electric to surge brakes here on our fifth wheel trailer, we're going to need some mechanism to apply the pressure to both of our disk brake calipers. In order to do that, we're going to be using this actuator here. So this actuator is going to take input from the tow vehicle via the form of an electric signal. And then it's going to actuate the pump, and it's going to apply the pressure to our disc breaking assembly so we can stop and slow down the trailer.So in order to use our electric over hydraulic unit, just like we would for electric brakes, we're going to need a brake controller in the cab of our tow vehicle. more
