You can convert surge brakes to an electric over hydraulic braking system. To do this, you will need an electric over hydraulic actuator and a brake controller. For an electric over hydraulic actuator, I recommend looking at the Carlisle HydraStar…
Hey Howard, the easiest way to determine what your total trailer weight is would be to find a local weigh station to you and just pull the trailer onto the scales. Then you can determine from there with a tongue weight scale like the part #BTBRV004…
Hey Uriah, thanks for reaching out! The Tradesman Vaquero Self-Contained Hydraulic A-Frame Trailer Jack #ST86FR will work best if it's hardwired to a battery on your trailer, but you can also hardwire a 7-Way plug and lead like part #H20043 and…

First you will need to remove the old hydraulic equipment. Remove the surge coupler or actuator, remove all the lines, and finally remove the brake assemblies. If you have 10 inch diameter hub and drums, you may need to replace those as well. If you…
