Hello Mike,
For your A-60 surge brake actuator like the # DX56FR, you’ll want the Emergency Breakaway Cable Repair Kit for Dexter A-60 Brake Actuators # DX64XR to replace the cable. For the cover, the correct part is the Replacement Black Plastic Filler Cap for Dexter 7,500 lb Brake Actuators # T097-022-00.
Did the cable break in an emergency situation? And what kind of boat do you have riding on that trailer?
