7-Way Adapter and Brake Controller Recommendation for 1997 Ford F-150 with 4-Way

Question:

Im trying to find an electric trailer brake system for a 97 Ford f150 4x4. The truck doesnt have a tow package. I have a receiver and 4 pin and thats it. I want to install a 7 pin and a brake controller. I need the whole system.

You would need to convert the 4-way to a 7-way so that you can install the brake controller. For that you will want the Brake Controller Install Kit and 7-Way Adapter part # ETBC7. This comes with everything needed to convert your 4-way to a 7-way and also wire up a brake controller in your 1997 Ford F-150.

For a brake controller I would recommend the Brake EVN # TK63VR. This is one our best selling brake controllers because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup. It's a proportional brake controller which means it senses how hard you are applying the vehicle brakes and applies a similar amount of braking force on the trailer brakes.
