Question:
What surge kit would you recommend to retro fit a used 2011 UHaul tow dolly?
asked by: Doug F
Expert Reply:
If the tow dolly has disc brakes the Dexter DX7.5 part # 099-175-20 would be a really solid option that works great and is very reliable. Most dollies have disc brakes so this most likely is the one to use but if for some reason it had drum brakes we have this in a drum version with the part # 099-175-00.
There isn't a super simple bolt-right-up actuator solution out there but this would be as close to that as possible and would work great so I'd recommend if for your Doug.
