You may only need to replace the master cylinder depending on your actuator, but I would need to know the manufacturer and model to see if we have the replacement parts. I've attached a link to all our replacement master cylinders to assist.

If you want to replace the actuator, I recommend the Swing-Away Actuator w/ Manual Lockout - Bolt On - Drum - 2" Ball - 7,500 lbs # T4839000. If you have disc brakes we don't currently have an option, so you would need to use a disc brake rated coupler and a separate swing-away adapter.

You may also need the Titan Hydraulic Brake Line with Fittings - 13" Long # T0777300 and the Titan Adapter Kit for Swing-Away Brake Actuators - 1" Spacer # T4842100 depending on your frame size.
