I recommend using the Demco Hydraulic Brake Actuator # DM72VR with the Reverse Lockout Solenoid # DM11993. This solenoid will require you to have a 5-Way Flat Trailer Connector # HM47910 on your trailer. This solenoid will become activated when your vehicle is placed into reverse. If your vehicle already has a 7-way the Adapter # A10-7275VP will allow you to connect the trailer 5-way. Otherwise you will need the Adapter # C57187 to convert a 4-way flat connector on your tow vehicle into a 5-way. It includes an additional wire for tapping into the reverse light circuit on your tow vehicle.
