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 3x5 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.

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 3x5 straight tongue.Delivery was very fast. Quality seems very good. Installation was super easy since my Shorelander swing tongue trailer has this standard hole pattern. I love how it looks and the extra foot of distance I get between the boat and my tow vehicle (so less chance of needing to get my feet wet or crawl through the SUV).
Initially receiving The actuator it was missing the cap that covered the rubber plug to the hydraulic reservoir and the manual lockout key, but after contacting etrailer , they quickly sent out the parts. The hitch was easy to install, and it works as it should.
Finished drum to disc brake conversion on my 1993 year model Bass Cat trailer. Installation went smoothly and the UFP-A60 Actuator replaced the obsolete Atwood Actuator. Shortened the outer member a bit and added a 1" flat bar to the bottom for welding of 4" channel trailer frame.
Fit my Karavan trailer well. Though, the top to mounting bolt holes were perfect, the lower holes did not align with the existing holes in the trailer. Had to drill both these through with a 1/2" bit. Then, mounted perfectly. Also, the brake line and blue/white wires hooked right up.
The actuator is an exact match for the one I have. As per your video, I will be able to replace the inner workings and hook up the existing brake line and wiring. The quality is excellent and the price was amazing. Very quick shipping,I live in Canada. I ordered it on Monday and it was in my driveway this morning on Friday. Very pleased doing business with etrailer. Thank you
Talked to an "expert"...expert recommended this actuator, based on my 3"×5" trailer tubing. Your "experts" need to learn to ask more questions, as i was puzzled as to how to install it...in showing pictures to your ONLINE experts, he suggested a very slightly different product, strangely with the same midel # but different bolt pattern. I am very frustrated with etrailer
I only used the surge brake, that was an easy replacement in my trailer.
Shipping was quick and it was packaged nicely. Exact fit for my 2013 single axel Karavan trailer.

Everything is working as it should and helps me feel secured when towing my boat. I coated it with WD40 over the winter to protect it.
By far the best service in the industry! Everything fits as it should.
Fit was seemless to replace an old actuator with the impossible do get landed hitch latch. Changed brakes from drum to disk, and all new lines. What a difference in smoothness (and effectiveness) while braking. Electric lockout in reverse is also a nice feature. Just plusses all around. If you are replacing the same components be very patient with the bleeding process...it will take some time and a lot of pumping.
Product arrived quickly (as always, thanks etrailer!) bolted direct to my shorelandr trailer without issue. it did not come with the reservoir cover or the manual lockout which was expected given it was a full tongue assembly. Also did not come with the manual (and specifically the spare breakaway clips in case the emergency cord is pulled). Save old lockout and reservoir cap if replacing a busted tongue!

It definitely should come with the cap, the lockout, and the manual. I will have our Customer Service team reach out to you.
Works great, no issues during installation or usage after 1 year.
Exactly what I needed. Didn't require the outer housing, the insider mechanism slid in nicely as a replacement on my trailer. The etrailer videos for installation and bleeding were very helpful.

After a year the actuator has been working great. I really enjoy having less braking load on my tow vehicle for both safety and wear and tear reasons. My only issue is that the plastic access cover became loose and was lost on the road.
