Expert Reply:

The best, most durable electric over hydraulic actuator for disc brakes is the HydraStar Vented Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes # HS381-8067.

This EOH actuator has a maximum output pressure of 1,600 psi, which is higher than some others, has a very fast response time, and the fact it is vented means its internal components are protected more than others which do not have that feature. This actuator is the highest quality and most reliable EOH actuator and I highly recommend it for your application.

Keep in mind that with the factory brake controller on a 2013 Chevy Silverado you will need the HydraStar Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator Adapter Module # HBA-CAM. That said I strongly recommend upgrading to an aftermarket brake controller, the Prodigy P3 # 90195.

I have added links to a video review and install for you to check out as well of the HydraStar Vented Marine Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes # HS381-8067.
