Replacement Trailer Actuator Recommendation for a Tie Down 70 LP Actuator

Question

Question:

My question is the same as your previous inquiry concerning actuator replacement on a Ranger Trailer. His was a 2009. Mine is a 2008 with disc brakes. The old system used TDE 70 LP SYSTEM.

While we don't have an exact replacement for your Tie Down 70 LP brake actuator, something like the Dexter DX7.5 Drop-N-Go Brake Actuator for Drum Brakes # 099-175-00 would be a good replacement option.

This is a bolt-on actuator with the bolt holes 3" apart on center. The design of this actuator is for it to sit on top of the trailer tongue as opposed to inside the trailer tongue like your current model.

Unfortunately, we don't offer any 6 bolt brake assemblies all the brake assemblies we offer for a 10K axle use a 5 or a 7 bolt mounting flange. According to Dexter, they discontinued those brake assemblies about 20 years ago. The good news is…
