Unless your dead set on electric brakes, the surge brake system works great.
All factory parts (HydroAct Brand) are still available from www.crofttrailer.com
Once the surge system is correctly fixed, you won’t have to mess with it for years.
You will not find parking brake levers anywhere...
I know it’s frustrating to keep chasing issues.
Been there when I first got mine.
Once you get everything worked out and correct, you will be happy with the results.
Hang in there!
Sure more power with a gas engine would be nice, but the sound of the 6.2 Diesel is wonderful.
