Use this actuator to synchronize your trailer brakes with your tow-vehicle brakes. Over-center latch mechanism only engages when the actuator is fully seated on 2" hitch ball. Designed for hydraulic disc brakes and 3x4 straight tongue.
Features:
Specs:
When you apply the brakes in your tow vehicle, deceleration occurs and momentum pushes your trailer toward the rear of your vehicle. With surge brake systems, the actuator is triggered as your trailer moves forward while the tow vehicle slows. The actuator telescopes, applying force to its master cylinder, which in turn supplies the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage the trailer's brakes.

Great replacement for a damaged actuator. A plan came together and it don't get much better.

Over 2,000 miles and the actuator is working great. Enough said.
The actuator arrived within two days after purchase. It fit perfectly as a replacement. Worked as it should. The top plastic cap was damaged during shipping. The staff were happy to send me a replacement. I am happy doing business with etrailer. Thanks a lot.

Thats awesome, Matthew, thanks. Were you able to get out on the water much this summer?
Perfect fit for my boat trailer. Only complaint is the surge brake backup plug is not attached by a stainless steel cable. It’s just loose so I have to keep track of it so I can use it when backing up a grade.
Exactly what I needed. Fit perfectly and easy to install.

Awesome actuator. I put this on my boat trailer. Nightday difference. Soft take off when being pulled. Not like my old one.
Perfect replacement. Installed without any problems.
Haven't installed it yet but seems to line up perfectly. Great quality as with all Dexter products. The low profile is slightly shorter than my old style pull down latch.
Everything is awesome

Quick turn around on product.
The shipping details absolute top notch
Have not use the Actuator yet. However it came in a oversize box. No packing material to protect it. It was damaged when I opened the box. Scratches and damage cable

Oh no! Our customer service team will reach out to assist you.
I slipped this into my boat mate trailer for 2001 moomba. Took about an hour to hook up and bleed the system with a buddy. Works great! If you can use simple tools and are mechanically savvy this is a no brainer.
Working great.
Every thing was great
I thought the product was good quality would have been nice if it came with some instructions.
The product you sent me had the correct internal parts that I needed although the mount was not correct I used my mount that came with the trailer.

brakes on my boat trailer are working just as good as the day they were installed.
I received my order two days ago, Quick shipping but it was the wrong part. I called and spoke with Noah who sent me an email asking me to take a picture of the part and add my phone number. I did right a way and still have not heard back. I emailed Noah today asking about the status no reply, now Im on a 9min hold to try and talk with someone about my replacement past. The wrong part looks like a good part if it fit my trailer.

Sorry you are having issues, CS will reach out to you about the warranty David.
Delivered quickly, I'm happy
The part was exactly what I needed. I gave 1 less star because the original item I requested was out of stock. Luckily I noticed that on the order status page and switched it to another item. This caused a significant delay in me receiving the part.
My package arrived a day early.
Installed new actuator on my boat trailer in about 5 minutes bleed the system and brakes and it works like a charm.
Actuator is leaking wont build pressure
