Tow Bar Wiring Recommendation for 2001 Ford Ranger
Question:
I am in need of a dinghy wiring kit for my 2001 Ford Ranger XLT. I need to wire for dinghy towing but have been unable to locate the kit needed. I am sure you must have such. Please give me the information I need to review and purchase. Thanks.

For tow bar lighting for your 2001 Ford Ranger you would want the Hopkins Kit part # HM56004 which is a custom fit setup for your vehicle. The connectors plug inline with the taillight connectors on your truck and allows your RV to control them.
If your tow vehicle has a 7-way you would want the part # HM47065 to use as an umbilical adapter to span distance between RV and Ranger.
