Hey Jim,
The Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator with Fill Cap # DX33FR will work as a replacement for your UFP A70 actuator if you have drum brakes. For disc brakes you're looking at part # DX89FR instead.
The titles say "A-60" but these will work for both A-60 and A-70 actuators. Previously the A-"number" was for the weight capacity of the coupler; an A-60 was rated for 6K and an A-70 was rated for 7K. In the recent past Dexter consolidated everything to be rated for 7.5K so all of the bases are covered.
