Question:
I have a 2004 metal craft boat trailer rated at 5000 lb tandem axle with drum brakes I’m looking to replace the brake coupler assembly because my master cylinder is faulty. I’m wanting an electric lock out included in assembly. I didn’t see that as option. Was checking if it is available? And confirm correct part. Or your recommendation Thank you

Hello Darin, thanks for reaching out. I do have a solution for you.
What I recommend is the Dexter DX7.5 Drop-N-Go Brake Actuator # 099-175-00. This is made for trailers with drum brakes, and it attaches to a 2" ball. It does not come with an electric lockout, but you can add one using the Lockout Solenoid # T4748800. That will add the electric lockout feature to your actuator.
