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.

Brophy Mounting Bracket for 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector - BK4F

Average Customer Rating:  4.5 out of 5 stars   (374 Customer Reviews)

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:

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:

Easy to install and works great to keep the wiring harness from dragging.



by:

Mounted fine to bumper, but does not hold harness at all.

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.



by:

Easy to install and etrailer was very helpful finding the right parts.



by:

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:

Simple but effective means to hold connector. I taped everything for more secure and professional looking mounting.

Just fine! Not a complicated device!



by:

Installed on Curt No-Drill Bracket for 6-Way or 7-Way Round Trailer Connector Mounting Bracket - Long on to Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - Matte Black Finish - Class III - 2" worked great just what I needed!!



by:

Instalation was pretty quick and easy, the completed installation worked great on my new trailer.



by:

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



by:

Very good customer relations and fast service.

Thank you Carl Cole



by:

Perfect, sturdy and good fit.



by:

Did not fit T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with Upgraded Circuit Protected ModuLite HD Module - 4-Way Flat
Item # 118781



by:

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



by:

My mounting bracket came with no hardware. Guess I’ll spend tomorrow at the store spending additional money. Hitch Receiver and wiring harness were as expected. Installation went great. Wiring harness came with a self tapping screw. Could not find a use for it, nor could find anything in the instruction on what it’s used for. Disappointed with the number of zip ties included. Had to use additional zip ties.



by:

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.



by:

Fits perfect



by:

Speedy delivery



by:

No screws or bolts nor instructions.



by:

Simple Bracket. Went to the auto parts store and bought some U-Nuts and Screws to make a clean installation.



by:

Good product hard to fit wire in on some harnesses



by:

Works great



by:

Product fit as advertised



by:

Fit the bill my hitch hook up was great but this will keep my wires in check



by:

Was simple to install only couple screws. Then slide the plug thru the hole and it locks into place. That’s it your done!! Holds the flat 4 pin plug perfectly haven’t had any problems



by:

You guys are awesome!! Thank you for the quality hitch and wiring harness

  • Does Brophy BK4F 4-Way Mounting Bracket Come with Mounting Hardware
    The 4-way mounting bracket # BK4F does not come with mounting hardware as it varies based on application what the best way to install it is. The easiest solution would be to source a couple self tapping screws locally and use them to attach the bracket to the rear of your vehicle.

    We have a couple of options for mounting a 4-flat connector to your Tacoma's hitch.

If you have a hitch with a round or square crossbar you will need the No-Drill Mount for Electrical Mounting Bracket item # 18140 and the item # BK4F.

  • Correct 2018 Chevy Equinox Premier Diesel T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness
    The T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness # 118759 is exactly what you need for your 2018 Chevy Equinox Premier - Diesel! I also recommend picking up the mounting brackets # BK4F and # 18140 so the 4-Way connector is readily located next to your hitch receiver as opposed to having to dig it out of the cargo area and drape it over your bumper when you need to use it.

  • Recommended Trailer Wiring For 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee
    I recommend the Tekonsha T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness, # 118727 for your 2021 Jeep Grand Cherokee. This custom-fit T-One connector simply plugs into your vehicle's OEM wiring harness that is located behind the tail lights. Then run a hot lead up to your Jeep's battery and connect the lead to the included fuse holder. Then connect the fuse holder to the positive terminal on your battery and insert the provided fuse.

  • How to Add Additional 4-Way Connection to a 2022 Ford F-350 Super Duty
    I've got a quick and easy solution for you with the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C55384. 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. I recommend picking up the Brophy Mounting Bracket # BK4F and N-Drill Mounting Bracket # 18136 so the additional 4-Way can be held in a place that has easy access.

  • 2013 Ford Escape Trailer Wiring Recommendation for Trailer Lights
    The 2013 Ford Escape wiring you need to activate your trailer lights is the Curt T-Connector # C56335. This tees in behind your tail lights and then draws power directly from your vehicle battery via the lead wire (see attached install video). I also recommend picking up the mounting brackets # BK4F and # 18140 so your connector is readily accessible when you need it!

  • Hardware Needed to Install the Brophy BK4F on a 2019 Nissan Frontier
    To install the Brophy # BK4F you can simply use self tapping screws like the # FA1131822 to secure this bracket to your hitch. You won't be able to use bolts since this is connected directly to the tube of the hitch on your 2019 Nissan Frontier. You could also use the # 18140 to allow for a no drill/screw application.

  • Will the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 Fit a 2022 BMW X3?
    Yes, the Curt Powered Tail Light Converter # C59236 will fit on your 2022 BMW X3. If you are worried about splicing into the wires we do have the ZCI Circuit Protected Vehicle Wiring Harness # 119250KIT which uses sensors placed over the tail light wiring. These sensors detect when power is going through the wiring to activate the 4-way wiring. You will want a Mounting Bracket # BK4F if you plan on mounting the 4-way near your receiver rather than running it through the rear hatch when needed.

  • Recommended Plug-In Trailer Wiring Harness for a 2023 Toyota Venza
    I recommend installing the Curt T-Connector # C57ER on your 2023 Toyota Venza because it tees in behind the tail lights as opposed to splicing into the OEM wiring like universal options do. The only spliced connection you have to make with this wiring is running the 12V power lead up to your vehicle battery so the trailer lights are powered that way instead of through your OEM circuits. You'll also want to pick up the mounting brackets # C57202 and # BK4F so you can keep the 4-Way near...
