Question:

I need to get a surge brake hitch for disc brakes I was looking at your surge brakes. My question is can you use a lock and roll style hitch with a surge brake? Would it be able to function and brake normally?

Expert Reply:

I reached out to my contact at Lock N Roll and he said that their system can be used with a surge brake application and that everything will function normally. The Coupler # 336TS502 would be the easiest to install if you have that type of surge brake system, but there are also the channel mounts for 2" # 336TS528, 2-1/2" # 336TS506, and 3" # 336TS508 channels if you're able to install one of those.

As far as the tow vehicle side of things goes I've linked our selection for you to filter through. This ranges from a straight shank # 336VS501 all the way to an 8-1/4" rise/drop with the adjustable channel # 336VS503515.

I've also attached some review videos for you to check out.
