hydraulic actuator

The braking systems don't tap in to the vehicles master cylinder with either system.

​Frantically Relaxing was speculating about why systems that tap into the tow vehicle master cylinder don't exist. My post was in response to that.

Totally different than trying to dial in the electrics on the 36' fifth wheel we had 10 years ago. I never did find a sweet spot...

So I have to wonder, why are there no hydraulic operated controllers these days?

Hence the reason large 5th wheel trailers are going to electric/hydraulic with disc brakes. A way better system.
