Hey Alan, thanks for reaching out. That model 66 actuator is an older model and unfortunately replacement master cylinders are no longer made for it. So, if you test your master cylinder and find it needs to be replaced, your only option will be to replace the entire actuator. We do have replacement options available; I'll just need to know if your trailer has disc brakes or drum brakes.

Here are the part numbers I recommend for a replacement:

- Dexter DX7.5 Drop-N-Go Brake Actuator - Disc Brakes - 2" Ball - Zinc Plated - 7,500 lbs # 099-175-20

- Dexter DX7.5 Drop-N-Go Brake Actuator - Drum Brakes - 2" Ball - Zinc Plated - 7,500 lbs # 099-175-00

What kind of trailer are you servicing?

Love this Actuator. It lives in a harsh environment only 100 feet from the ocean. If couples without issue. It has not rusted since it was purchased, which is impressive. T. Hunt

@TerryH Awesome! Sounds like you are really putting the coupler to the test, and I'm glad to hear it's holding up so well. Thanks for sharing!
