A surge brake control unit is disclosed for attachment between a towed vehicle having brake means and a towing unit. The brake control includes a pair of elongated, coaxial, relatively movable, telescoping members. One of the members is secured to the towed vehicle, and the other member is adapted to be secured to the towing unit. Cooperative abutment means are provided on each of the members, and a spring yieldably urges the abutment means on the one member into engagement with the abutment means on the other member. A brake-applying device is carried at one end of the one member, and is engaged with the end of the other member. Upon relative movement between the members, the brake applying device applies the towed vehicle's brakes.
