Replacement Bolt-On Disc Brake Actuator for Tie Down 70E

Updated 07/08/2020 | Published 07/07/2020

Question:

Im looking to replace my Tie Down 70E disc actuator. Do you offer a replacement that would allow me to use the same holes on the trailer for mounting? It uses three mounting bolts, see below pic. I would like to avoid drilling new holes and cutting the trailer if it all possible. Thanks

There is a replacement that I recommend for the Tie Down 70E disc brake actuator, though you will want to verify that your mounting bolt holes are 3 inches apart on center and your tongue is a 3 inch channel.

If they are I recommend the Dexter DX7.5 Drop-N-Go Brake Actuator # 099-175-20.

This actuator has a 7,500 lb capacity, couples to a 2 inch hitch ball, and is designed for use with disc brakes like you need. I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well.
