Hey Bob,
From what I could find on the old Titan Ultra A-70, it looks like the Dexter 7,500 # T63FR for Drum Brakes will be a really good replacement. It has a super similar physical profile to the A-70 and works with the same size 2" hitch ball. You shouldn't have any problem bolting this onto the trailer tongue in place of the Titan Ultra model.
I attached a little review video on the actuator that you can check out as well.
