The brake controller I would recommend for your 2007 Toyota Tacoma is the Tekonsha Prodigy 2 Brake Controller, # 90885, that can be installed with the # 3040-P wiring harness that is specific to your Tacoma.
The Prodigy 2 brake controller is our best selling model. It can be mounted in a 360 degree vertical range and will level itself automatically. It is a proportional brake controller which means that the brakes are applied to the trailer at the same time and same strength as the brakes on your truck.
If you have the factory tow package with the 7-Way trailer connector at the rear of your vehicle then the Toyota adapter can be plugged into the brake controller plug under you dash on your 2007 Toyota Tacoma and the other end will plug into the brake controller. This will complete the installation of your brake controller on your 2007 Toyota Tacoma.
The Tekonsha Prodigy P2 brake controller should work well when towing your 4,000 lbs. trailer.
I am sending a link to the instructions on the Prodigy brake controller and a video link to the brake controller being installed on a 2007 Toyota Tundra. The vehicle is different, but the installation is similar.
