Question:
I have a boat trailer appx 3500# with hydraulic surge brakes and a 2017 tundra set up for electric brakes. What parts would I need to to convert it to an electric over hydraulic, system without changing out the hydraulic brakes. Including emergency breakaway Thanks, Happy 4th.

Happy 4th to you as well, Jerry!
Since you already have your 2017 Toyota Tundra set up for electric brakes you just need to add an electric-over-hydraulic (EOH) actuator and the breakaway battery kit. Here is what I recommend for your application:
- Actuator for Drum Brakes # HS381-8066
- Actuator for Disc Brakes # HS381-8067
- Breakaway Battery Kit # 20400
Attached are some review and installation videos for you to check out!
