Hello Dwight,
No, the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout - Bolt On - Disc - 2" Ball - Zinc - 7.5K # DX56FR does not come with the fluid. You will want to use DOT 3, please see attached CAUTION from the Dexter manual.
What kind of trailer is the going on? Boat trailers are usually the answer, if so what kind of boat and what are you out catching? I have a Ranger and dabble in some local bass tournaments here in Missouri at the Lake of the Ozarks, and Mark Twain Lake.
