Welcome to Steel Soldiers.
Trailer base appears to be a M116A3 or A2.
No data plates anywhere?
Manual for the M116A2/3 is in the Technical Manual (TM) section.
Croft Trailer www.crofttrailer.com has the factory parts for the surge brake assembly.
HydroAct is the Manufacturer
Dexter for...
Without bushings?
Then it’s not the same shock.
Post the link.
If anyone wants the exact, correct shock to install, the Croft price is the lowest price.
Several different shocks look like they might fit, but the surge assembly accepts only one.

You have to do your due diligence.
Especially if it’s something your family will depend on.
Every piece of surplus equipment I buy, I will spend days reading everything I can about it.
TMs, threads, issues and fixes, opinions.
Then going over every inch of it.
Making notes of what I’ve...
Add oil and see how bad it is.
I agree it’s toast but am curious to see how it runs and for how long after it starts again.
Good running 6.2L takeouts are plentiful and inexpensive around here.
Up there their probably scarce and expensive.
The Steel Soldiers classified...
Everyone that runs the ACDELCO 13Gs and 60Gs have had extremely good and proven results.
Why go with anything else?
The Delcos aren’t expensive.
AC 60Gs are what the majority of guys use.
Self regulating and no swelling.
Once you have had to pull the injector(s) to remove the busted end of...
