Yes, the Replacement Plug and Play Electric-Over-Hydraulic Actuator # DX36XR is the correct part for your Dexter BrakeRite II SD.

To replace the wiring harness you also need part # T4834300. This is the harness with the 7-Way connectors and the matching plug that mates up to the actuator wiring pigtail.
