OK on the disc part, but is it electrical or hydraulic? If electrical, should work, if hydraulic, no.

Kingranch, the August issue of 'Trailer Life' has an article about trailer disc brakes and controller compatibility. The article is for electric over hydraulic actuators, which you may be looking at. It seems that the Ford TBC is compatible with all but Carlisle HydraStar actuators.

Your local library or an RV dealer may have this issue.
