The Replacement Inner Member item # DX97FR on the Weld on Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator item # DEX94FR is 2-11/16" wide on the outside. The weld on bracket is 3-3/8" wide measured from the outside.

What size tongue does your trailer have and what model of actuator are you replacing?

Answer 5

For a brake actuator that will fit your 3-1/2" tongue you will need a weld-on model. None of the bolt-on will fit a 3-1/2" tongue as you said. I recommend the Dexter DX7.5L A-60XL #DX43FR if you have disc brakes or the Dexter DX7.5L A-60…

Answer 10
