Hey folks,

I'm looking for somebody around here who does trailer brake work. I'd like to convert my hydraulic surge brakes to the new marine electronic ones. I have a tandem axle trailer that carries around a 22 ft center console.

Can you guys recommend somebody within 30 min of grapevine?

Also--does anybody have this setup?

He runs a that trailer place on South loop 820 in Ft. Worth. If it can be done he can do it and does great work at a reasonable price.

Electric+water=I don't get it. Got a link to these new brake systems?

They make them. Google is your friend.

Thanks Bobcat-- I will give him a call!

they have been doing them for years, not to mention your trailer lights are electric.

i want to switch mine over to all hydraulic/electric(surge) brakes. my hydraulic system is not working.

I changed 2 boat trailers, from surge drum, to surge disc, about 8 or 9 yrs ago. Went through a company called (UFP). Unique Functioning Products. I'm almost positive that was their name. First one took about 4 hrs. Second one about 1.5 hrs. Of corse after I hit the submit button I will do some research

the one thing that changed my mind about going to electric was the fact not just any truck can pull the boat.

how about electric fuel pumps, in the gas tank..

I did my own and they work great. I went with electric since I pull a Triton 185 magnum with a tacoma single cab and was worried about traction issues not activating the surge brakes. I haven't found any issues yet but I did buy the best controller I could afford.
