• Is the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver 65022 Better Than the Cheap Amazon Copies
• Thanks for reaching out Denis, I'd love to clear the air for you! While I don't have info on the factory that the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65022 is made at, what I can say is that Draw-Tite is one of the leading hitch brands on the market, and is what a lot of the knockoffs try to model their hitches after.

• Recommended Braking System For US Gear D-Celerator Unified Flat Tow Braking System
• Congrats on the new purchase! Sorry to have to tell you but conventional brake controllers like the Redarc item # RED24FR do not work with the D- Cellorometer Unified brake system. We do not offer any replacement parts for Unified systems and it does not look like they are still available either. The only solution I have is to replace it with the Demco SBS Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System item # SM99251.

• Availability of Brake Controller With Multiple Profiles for 1999 Ford F-350 Cab and Chassis
• Yes, there are a few brake controllers that can store different profiles/presets. I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 # 90195. This brake controller can store up to 5 different trailer profiles.

For a plug and play installation you can use the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring...

• I've never heard of or seen a female to female 7-way connector and based off of what you are describing having on your vehicles and looking at I think you need the Bargman 7-Way Molded Trailer Wire Connector item # 50-67-210. This cable has a double ended standard RV style 7-way connector on either end and is 8' long.

• Trailer Hitch Solution for Ford F-450 Aerotech Shuttle Bus
• For a vehicle like what you have we don't have custom fit solutions. Typically the best route is to go with like a multi fit service body hitch like the # 41990-16 which you'd need to have a welder attach to the frame. This has a 16 inch drop bracket setup so it can clear down below the bumper you mentioned. If that happens to be too tall we have a version that has 7 inch brackets with the part # 41990-07.
