You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 40185.

Now if your trailer does not have brakes all you would need is the part # 37185 as an adapter to convert the 4-way to a 7-way.

If you do have trailer brakes you would need the # 3035-p and the # 37185 and a brake controller. The brake output circuit is ran to the truck frame rail where you can easily complete it to the blue wire of the 37185. Check out the FAQ article I attached on this for more info.

For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
