When you apply the brakes in your tow vehicle, deceleration occurs and momentum pushes your trailer toward the rear of your vehicle. With surge brake systems, the actuator is triggered as your trailer moves forward while the tow vehicle slows. The actuator telescopes, applying force to its master cylinder, which in turn supplies the necessary hydraulic pressure to engage the trailer's brakes.

Ordered brake actuator from Etrailer after several attempts from EZTrailee with no response. Wished I had checked out Etrailer sooner. Received notification at each billing, shipping.
It was easy to find the parts got fast shipping with working brakes now, can enjoy the boat again. This is the third trailer you helped me repair with correct parts, fast shipping
Many thanks guys

Very sturdy material and well made. Works as designed and the electrical lock out for disc brakes is very useful.
Manual lock out lever key could be magnetized to avoid falling off.

The product is as expected and an exact replacement for my trailer. The exceptional part of the transaction was the speed my order was filled and shipped.

E trailer is the best. I have bought dozens of items from them an it was always a great experience. Customer service is the best.
by: Paul08/19/2022
The product came unboxed, missing instructions and no spare break away clips. I purchased a new actuator and got one that was laying around.
by: Edward 08/12/2022
The manual lockout device, supplied with the actuator, requires a second person to hold it in place when backing. It will not stay in place on its own.

This product doesn’t fit over 3” tongue. Its the exact same size as a 3” tongue.Unusable. Had to remove the internal portion and modify my trailer tongue to fit. Arrived as the worst packaged item I’ve ever received. It was barely still in the box. Whom ever packaged this didn’t have a clue what they were doing.

See what our Experts say about this Dexter Brake Actuator
- Can Inner Slide Member be Replaced on UFP A-60 Actuator to Upgrade from Drum to Disc BrakesI do have an option for you but we wouldn't be able to provide a new inner slide member for the UFP A-60 Brake Actuator to convert this from drum to disc, it would need to be replaced in its entirely as it's simply too old. I recommend the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator part # DX89FR which will be a great fairly bolt-on swap for your existing actuator and it's rated for disc brakes so it allows you to upgrade for better stopping power.
view full answer... - How High Up are the Bolt Holes on the Dexter DX89FR Actuator?I had the bolt holes on the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator # DX89FR measured and they are 5/8 of an inch from the bottom of the bracket to the center of the bolt holes.
view full answer... - Replacement For A Reliable ACT 7.5 KS Brake ActuatorAt this time we do not carry a compatible inner member for your Reliable ACT 7.5 KS actuator so I recommend replacing it with the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout # DX89FR. This hydraulic actuator activates trailer's brakes when tow vehicle slows or stops and electric reverse lockout lets you back up without actuating trailer brakes.

- Replacement Actuator for Tie Down LP7000 Surge DiscI looked up your Tie Down LP7000 actuator and it's basically a 7,500 lb capacity surge brake actuator for disc brakes with a low profile like the part # DX89FR which would be a really great option.
view full answer... - Replacement Actuator for UFP A-60 34044The UFP 34044 is basically the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 part # DX89FR. The second number you mentioned is actually a phone number. But the # DX89FR would be an exact replacement for what you have.
view full answer... - Replacement Actuator for a Model ACT-7.5KWhile we do not carry replacement parts for the Model ACT-7.5K actuator, I can recommend a replacement actuator. It's the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout, part # DX89FR. It has a 2" ball coupler and designed for hydraulic disc brakes. The electric reverse lockout lets you back up without actuating the trailer brakes. It's low-profile and corrosion-resistant. I've linked to a video review of this actuator for you to look at.
view full answer... - Could Dexter Surge Actuator # DX89FR Replace Tie Down LP 7000The Dexter DX 7.5 actuator part # DX89FR that you referenced is a very similar design to the Tie Down LP 7000 that you referenced. This would be a great replacement solution that may not bolt up exactly the same but would still work great.
view full answer... - Replacement Surge Brake Actuator for Reliable ACT-7.5K Brake ActuatorI have a replacement for you but we do not carry the Reliable ACT-7.5K Brake Actuator. We have the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout # DX89FR that will replace your surge brake actuator on your trailer. The specs match but the bolt holes may not line up so you likely will need to drill new holes.
view full answer... - 2015 Ranger Boats z520c Replacement Coupler/ActuatorI don't know what the exact replacement you'd need for your Ranger trailer is but the Dexter DX7.7L part # DX89FR would work great for you either way so it would be the solution I would recommend. It has plenty of capacity, is a more reliable design than some options, is disc brake compatible and would install easy.
view full answer... - What Type of Brake Fluid to Use in Dexter Surge Actuator # DX89FRDOT5 brake fluid is what you'd want to use in the Dexter surge actuator part # DX89FR. If the breakaway pin was pulled it would be replaceable. The breakaway cable is replaceable.
view full answer... - Proper Replacement for Reliable ACT-7.5K Brake ActuatorAlthough we don't carry replacement parts for your Reliable brake actuator we do offer a good replacement, the Dexter # DX89FR would be an excellent replacement for your current actuator. You can see a product video for the # DX89FR hydraulic actuating brake coupler by using the provided link.
view full answer... - Can Dexter Brake Actuator # DX89FR be Used with Tandem Axle Disc BrakesThe Dexter brake actuator part # DX89FR that you referenced can be used with tandem axle disc brake trailers.
view full answer... - Tie Down LP7000 Brake Actuator ReplacementI do have an option for you but we don't offer any direct bolt-on swap options for the Tie Down Engineering LP7000 Actuator due to the age. That said, we do have plenty of great replacement options like the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator part # DX89FR but you'd have to drill a few new holes in the trailer. This actuator has a low profile design, is compatible with a 2" hitch ball, and is designed for disc brakes.
view full answer... - Replacement Brake Actuator for Tie Down Engineering LP7000In terms of capability the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout - Bolt On - Disc - 2" Ball - Zinc - 7.5K # DX89FR is a good replacement option. The problem is the design of your old TDE LP7000 which was installed inside the tongue of the trailer. The # DX89FR and others like it fit standard 3" wide trailer tongues. The actual inside dimension will be 3-1/8" to be able to go over the 3" tongue. With that 3-3/8" measurement you will not be able to fit a replacement actuator...

- How to Replace Tie Down Engineering LP7000 ActuatorI'm guessing it is approximately 3-3/8" across if you measured it. Unfortunately there are no options that will slide in because it won't line up correctly, and everything is designed to fit a 3" tongue so it is too wide to mount an actuator on top. Although it is not ideal, the only solution is to cut that off and replace the tongue with a standard 3" trailer tongue. Once you have a 3" wide trailer tongue you will be able to install an actuator like the # DX89FR you were looking at.

- Replacement Actuator for a TDE Model LP7000To replace your TDE Model LP7000 actuator, I recommend the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout item # DX89FR. This coupler is designed to mount on top of a standard 3" wide trailer tongue. It measures right at 3-3/8" wide so this will fit into your 3-1/2" tongue. I recommend using some washers to make up the slight gap you are going to have on either side. This actuator is designed for disc brakes, it has a 7,500 lbs capacity, and fits a 2" ball.

From what I can find, you currently have a Reliable ACT-7.5K brake actuator. Unfortunately, we don't carry replacement parts for your Reliable brake actuator. The best option that we can provide would be to replace your current brake actuator with the Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator w Electric Lockout # DX89FR.

- Does the UFP A-60 Surge Brake Actuator Require Lubrication on Inner Slide MemberI looked up the manual online for the UFP A-60 Surge Brake Actuator and found the following bullet points for greasing. "Lightly grease rear rollers and hold them in the pockets in the sides of the master cylinder while inserting entire assembly into the inner member from the back end. While inserting assembly make sure push rod enters hole in push rod bracket. The tab on the safety release bracket will have to be depressed to allow push rod assembly to fully enter hole in push bracket....
view full answer... - Mounting Hardware Required For Installing Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator # DX89FRThe Dexter DX7.5L A-60 Brake Actuator # DX89FR needs to be attached to your trailer with grade 5, 1/2" diameter bolts torqued to 80 ft-lbs. Do note if your square tube frame uses thin wall tubing you will need to insert spacers inside the frame to prevent it to collapsing.

It is a bolt-on model, that has a weight capacity of 7,500 pounds. It has the electric reverse lockout included which allows you to back up without actuating the trailer brakes. It has an Aluminum master cylinder. I have attached a review video link below.
view full answer... - What Alternate Brake Actuator Can I Substitute for My Dico Aero 6000 Brake Actuator?I have a solution for you that will work as a replacement. Unfortunately, we do not carry the correct replacement shock T4502000 for your Dico Aero 6000 actuator because it has been discontinued from production. I went ahead and reached out to Dexter axle (the makers of the Dico Aero 6000), and they said that, sadly, the only thing to do would be to replace the actuator itself. I know that this can be frustrating to hear, but the good news is that we do have some great options. For a replacement...
view full answer... - Replacement Disc Brake Actuator for A60 with Electric LockoutWe do have replacement hydraulic actuators for your UFP A60 boat trailer actuator: If the actuator mounts on top of the trailer frame use part # DX89FR, but if it mounts inside of the trailer frame use part # DX29FR instead. These disc brake actuators are bolt-on installations that are compatible with a 2" hitch ball and the electric lockout feature.
view full answer... - Availability of Inner Member of the Dexter DX 7.5L A-60 # DX89FRYes we do have the inner member available for the Dexter DX 7.5L A-60 # DX89FR that you mentioned with the # DX99FR.

I looked up your trailer and was not able to determine if it had disc or drum brakes which is why I listed both options.
