Video Transcript for Brophy Mounting Bracket for 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector Review
Today, you're going to be taking a look at the Brophy mounting bracket for four-pole flat trailer connectors. That's going to be part number BK4F.So here's what our four-pole bracket's going to look like once we have it installed. It's going to allow us to have our four-pole wiring right by our hitch. That way whenever we get ready to tow, we can plug right up. This is going to be a lot better solution to secure our wire rather than just hanging it on our hitch or securing it to our safety chain connection point because we don't have to worry about our wires hanging down and possibly getting damaged.Our bracket is going to work with most four-pole standards plugs, and even if we remove the dust cap, you can see it's not going to fall back in even if we have to really push to plug in our trailer. Installing it is going to be as simple as putting two bolts in and running your four-pole connection through the bracket.
Let's show you how to do that now.Our four-pole bracket is going to have two holes on it, so we can either mount it to our hitch or another bracket so we can put our wiring in place. Keep in mind that our bracket's not going to come with any hardware, but if you are using a short or long bracket, there will be hardware with that kit. So I'm going to drop down my hardware from on top of the bracket. I'll line up the hole in my four-pole bracket, and I'll do that for the other hole as well. Then I'll come back and tighten up all the hardware.Now, you just want to take the dust cap off your four-pole, and coming from the back side, we'll push it through.
You just want to make sure that you push it in far enough that the tabs on there are going to catch. This will prevent it from going back in. I'm just going to have to work it back and forth a little bit. Then we can tie up any of the excess wires behind the hitch, and we can even put a little bit of electrical tape to hide the color on the back of our car.That'll finish up your look at the Brophy mounting bracket for four-pole flat trailer connectors, part number BK4F.

Bracket for 4-way flat trailer connector mounts to your trailer hitch or vehicle bumper and provides a sturdy, fixed location to easily connect your trailer wiring.by: Russ 04/24/2024
Just what I wanted. This bracket is a perfect fit for my trailer hitch receiver. Bracket installs very easily and keeps the 4-pin connector looking nice and neat without having it hang below the bracket or bumper.
by: Mark 04/14/2024
All 3 items arrived together and on schedule. The only reason I do not give the purchase 5 stars is because the wiring harness had to be modified to work with my car. If I didn’t go to a trailer repair company, the wiring may still not be on the car.
by: Don 05/06/2024
Delivery was fast and on time as promised! Installation videos and instructions were spot on. Would highly recommend!
by: Douglas 04/10/2024
Easy to install and works great to keep the wiring harness from dragging.
by: Craig02/20/2024
Mounted fine to bumper, but does not hold harness at all.
by: Andrew 04/23/2024
Works like a charm. Highly recommend etrailer.com A+++++++
by: Steven 04/16/2024
Easy to install and etrailer was very helpful finding the right parts.
by: Alan 04/18/2024
It is fine but did come with any mounting hardware.
by: Craig05/09/2024
Couldn’t have been much easier. Remove the plastic cover under the left rear of the vehicle (3 push pins and 2 14mm plastic nuts), remove the cap on the factory harness, plug in the new harness and secure the wires as you see fit. There’s no instructions for wire storage or how to route them, but it’s very simple - use common sense - plenty of YouTubes.
by: Michael07/13/2022
Seemed cheap (Thin metal) but works well with the harness kit. I bought this because NOBODY makes a aftermarket flange mount flat plug only trailer plug in.

little oxidation on the pins. a little sanding and dielectric grease and alls well.
by: Allen07/05/2021
Simple but effective means to hold connector. I taped everything for more secure and professional looking mounting.

by: James 08/03/2023
Bracket is well made however it was very difficult to get my 4 prong plug in the bracket properly. Actually had to open the slot abit just to get started. With all that being said the finish product looks great. Not sure this bracket if this bracket was supposed to be a good fit

I would have liked to have gotten fasteners with this product. But it works good.

This probably works fine but I can't tell just yet. The mounting screws don't come with this so now I have to go and buy some.

The only way you can have the higher 4,500 lbs towing capacity is if you have the FWD with VR2 or the AWD with V92 option. If you aren't sure on that then your best bet is to reach out to your local Chevy dealer with your VIN to see exactly what you have on your vehicle. I got the towing information from the online owner's manual from the Chevy site. If you don't already have the parts needed to tow a trailer then I...

This tees in behind your current 4-Way/7-Way using the US CAR connection and gives you an additional 4-Way that you'll be able to use the same time your 7-Way is being used.

That is kind of a bummer. Sometimes the bracket can be just a little too big and harness a little too small enough to make it not work. What I recommend is to use electrical tape to thicken up the four flat connector so that it stays in place.
