Installation was very straight forward.
I
used some left over pieces of foam pipe insulation over the cable where it passed over the truck frame and th inner wheel well. I mounted the extended Seven Pin connector just forward of the wheel well just below the bed rail on the driver's side.
The umbilical from our 5th wheel reaches with enough slack to lay on the truck bed.
We picked up our Escape 5.0TA two weeks ago and drove about 3300 miles from WA to MI.
The plug was easy to plug in and unplug.
Overall a very nice product.

@Ronald That's awesome! Thanks for the feedback!


by:

Worked great, I traded the vehicle that I installed the wiring adapter in tho. So it may be of use to someone else also.



by:

Initially worked great, but now it keeps losing connection to the camper. I had to plug the camper in to the 7 way on the bumper to get home. Everything would seem fine but then getting on the highway I'd get a warning message on the dash and lose lights/trailer brakes. Not something you want happening at 70mph.

Truly happy with this product and can't wait to go to work! etrailer sent me everything I requested and the installer had no problems. Everything was packed well in shipping with no problems.



by:

Product arrived overnight and I installed it upon arrival in order to be able to leave on a planned trip. Install was quick and easy and product was as advertised. I appreciated etrailer getting the order out immediately to me. Top rate company.

This product makes it so simple to add a Fifth wheel plug into the bed. Installation takes maybe 20-30 minutes. I installed mine on the column at the tailgate so it is out of the way (less likely to get damaged by other cargo). The only issue I experienced with install was that due to the small opening in that column (from under the vehicle), I had to remove the gray wire cover and then reinstall it after feeding the wire harness up into the column. (This was minor) Would definitely recommend this as it is simply "plug n play" with no cutting of wires or crimping needed.

Very pleased with etrailer.com. All product information and reviews help make decision very easy. Very quick delivery and installation instructions are very easy to follow. Purchased 5th wheel hitch and custom wiring extension for my 2014 F250.

Thanks for the follow up. I’ve enjoyed the products ease of installation and use. I easily hook up my 5th wheel camper by myself and have had no issues. Great products!



by:

Delivery was ahead of schedule. The product is top grade. I installed it myself which took all 45 minutes. Tested it on the trailer and everything worked perfectly.

Plug and play. Works great.

The products have worked flawlessly no problems and thank you for checking back with me its nice when a company cares about there costumers. Next time I need any trailer products I will definitely be contacting etrailer.

The trailer wiring extension worked perfectly for my 2013 2500HD setup. It was easy to install and makes hooking up and trailering that much easier.



by:

Nice long wiring harness.



by:

Working very well yet!



by:

Awesome product fit the truck just like it should and very easy to install keeps me from scratching the tailgate with a wire over the back of the truck easy to reach when hooking up trailer



by:

Easy install and a great product. Used on 5th wheel rv trailer. No more wiring cord from trailer hanging over the end gate. Thanks!



by:

Went on in minutes



by:

Looks like an easy install good quality



by:

Customer service for product selection and order entry were excellent and focused on my interests and needs. The hitch, custom installation kit, and harness were shipped very quickly and arrived sooner than expected. Everything arrived in excellent condition. Assembly and installation instructions were very clear and specific, and I was able to assemble and install everything with no problems and in a very reasonable amount of time. Total cost was roughly half of what it would have been if I had purchased the products and had them installed by a dealer. I am very satisfied with my experience dealing with etrailer.com, and would highly recommend them to anyone shopping for towing products.

This is an easy install and seems well made. I probably didn’t need the 10’ long my truck called for but no problem zip tying up out of the way. Well pleased.



by:

It worked exactly as it should. I did mess up on the hole location. I put it to hight and didn't allow for the depth. I had to make a 1/4" spacer to fill the gap.. my mistake.



by:
2006 Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty

I'm a huge fan of completing wiring projects with no "hacking" into harnesses. This harness is plug and play. When I finished installing it, the underside of the truck looks like it came from the factory. Job done

I havent thought about it for a year. I can give no higher praise for a product.it does its job very well.



by:
2016 Ford F-350 Super Duty

I haven't installed it yet, however, I cut the inside bed wall in preparation for a spray-in bed liner before installing.
It looks just like the picture and description, arrived undamaged and ready for install. Great installation instructions!

Still using and I really like the hitch and other items I purchased a year ago. After installing the Curt fifth wheel hitch, Ive used it several times and I will be using it a bunch over rbe next several weeks. Easy to maintain and use.



by:

It was exactly what I was looking for, perfect length this saved a lot of time.



by:

This wiring harness made adding a plug in the bed of the truck for the gooseneck trailer a breeze. I didn’t really need the 10’ harness but I just looped and zip tied the excess. One year later and the plug still works great.



by:

Worked perfect. Unfortunately 1 yr later at the bumper location (where the splitter is installed) I don't have reverse lights on my trailer. They still work from the new mount in the box, just not from the bumper location. It's possible it never worked from the beginning, as I didn't have a trailer with reverse light at the time, but I do now and they don't work... I understand I'm just outside of the 1yr warranty period too. My fault for not checking right away.

  • How to Have 7-Way Connectors at the Rear Bumper and in Bed for a 1996 Ford F-350
    If you have a fully functioning 7-Way in the bed of your 1995 Ford F-350 then you should be able to simply use a tee connector like the Curt # C56000 to tee into the US Car Connector behind the 7-Way for your gooseneck. You can use the attached picture and a circuit tester # PTW2993 to make sure you have all of the functions. You will need to use the manual override from your brake controller to make sure that the brake controller is sending power back to the 7-Way. It is possible that...

    Seems to be the issue is on the blue brake output wire/circuit. That's typically what triggers this error message on the factory systems.

  • Parts Needed to Add a 7-Way to a 2003 Ford Ranger FX4 for Camper Power
    Since your 2003 Ford Ranger has a 4-way you are going to need a 4 Pole to 7 Pole Adapter part # 37185. This will give you 7-way at the rear of your vehicle. You will only need to make two additional connections for this to work for what you are doing. You will need to run the black wire to the positive side of your vehicle battery through a 40 amp fuse like the part # 9510. I would recommend you use 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 (sold by the foot) to make this connection. This will...

  • Fifth Wheel Hitch Mounting Bracket/Rails for 2011 Ford F-250
    The correct Curt Bracket/Mounting Rail kit for your 2011 Ford F250 is # C16424-204. The # C16448-204 you'd checked out is a fit for 2005-2010 Ford F250, F350 and F450 trucks and wouldn't be compatible with your 2011 model. If you'd like to install a 7-way trailer connector in the truck bed, you can do so using part # C56000.

    Although we don't offer a Husky 5th wheel install rail and bracket kit for your truck, we do offer a reasonably priced bracket/rail kit that would be compatible with your Husky 5th wheel hitch. I'd recommend you go with the Curt # C16411-204 Custom 5th Wheel Install Kit.
