Replacement for Atwood Surge Brake Actuator 85778
Updated 04/30/2021 | Published 04/28/2021
Question:
I have an older 2005 ez-Loader trailer. I had new breaks and tires put on recently but the break actuator was not able to be fixed. It says on the unit See owners manual P/N 85778inch and on the side it says its an Atwood. I know they are no longer in business. What should I buy to replace the old one. Thank You.

Expert Reply:
The replacement I recommend for an Atwood Surge Brake Actuator 85778 is the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator part # DM62VR. It has the same ball size, offers a bolt-on install, and has a greater capacity. The only difference is it has an electric lockout as opposed to a manual one.
