Question:

I have an Exiss enclosed trailer. It has 7k triple axles with hydraulic drum brakes. It did not have the hydraulic unit in it when I bought it useddidnt know until I got it home. I have a Titan brake actuator P/N: 068-001-05 new I picked up from a friend. I have a 2020 3500 GMC dually and my brother has a 2019 3500 Chevy dually. I am trying to get this thing fixed to be able to pull with either truck. What all do I need to make this work? I think I need T4844100 reducer for drums. Do I need T4345900 adapter for out trucks to work with this unit? If so, do I just plug both of these in line with the pump? What is the part number for the harness that has the 7 way male and female with plug to run unit for GM truck? What is the part number for breakaway to plug in this system? What is the SD controller in diagram? Do I need it?

To convert a Titan BrakeRite from a disc brake application to a drum you would need the adapter you mentioned part # T4844100 and then to use with integrated brake controllers you would also need the # T4845900. These both plug inline like you mentioned.

Then for a breakaway kit you'd want the part # T4822100.

You would not need an SD controller. If needed your trailer would have already have that.
