Default Trailer ovehaul

I am wondering if there is a marine grade brake fluid, or do I just go to Advance Pep Zone and get something off the shelf?

Get what the trailer or actuator manufacturer says. Usually DOT3 or Dot 4. If you don't have a manual call the manufacturer.

Thanks, Mike. I'll probably have to do that. I'm using a Titan Dico model 6 actuator with Kodiak brakes. Not sure who to call, but Eastern should do...

I bleed my brakes every other year. The master cylinder cover tells me to use DOT 3.
