Will Dexter Straight Tongue Coupler # T4853100 Replace DX20 Actuator?

Question:
I have a Dexter DX20 surge coupler that I will be changing to electric over hydraulic. I was looking at the Titan straight tongue coupler T4853100 to replace the DX20. Do you know if the bolt patterns will line up or if you have a coupler that will be a direct replacement for the DX20? Thank you

Yep!
The farthest mounting holes on the Dexter Straight Tongue Coupler # T4853100 you were looking at are 5" apart as shown in the included diagram, and I was able to find that the DX20 you have uses mounting holes 5" apart as well allowing you to reuse your existing mounting holes.
