The Titan brake actuator # T43397007K will take 1/2 inch by 4 inch grade 5 bolts, nuts, and lock washers. Since this is a boat trailer if you can find some grade 5 zinc coated or stainless steel they will have better corrosion resistance. I have linked a video review and the installation instructions for this actuator for you.
