LIKE2BUILD, why not dump the surge brakes and go with electric over hydraulic. I had the hitch coupler replaced and added the HydraStar HBA-10 to my boat trailer. Was the best thing I have ever done, the trailer will actually lock up the tires now if I set the controller above 6. If you have disc brakes you will need the HBA-12 for single axle or HBA-16 for dual axle brakes. The brakes are only applied when you apply the TV brakes.
Here are a few pics of my trailer during the install, BTW the system uses the standard seven wire RV plug.
I added a SS mounting bracket to raise the unit up to make sure it doesn't get submerged in water.
