You want to check your rails, to see if you have the 4-bolt rails or the 10-bolt rails. For your 1996 Ford F350 8 foot bed the 10-bolt rails are part # RP58058. The rails look similar but they have the mounting holes in different locations.
If you have the 10-bolt base rails Reese Universal Base Rails 10-Bolt, # RP58058, you need the Reese Universal Installation Kit (No Base Rails) 10-Bolt, # RP30439. This kit is the mounting brackets with the hardware, but not the base rails.

Converting a 6-Way connector to a 7-Way connector will be easy. A 6-Way connector already has most of the functions used by a 7-Way, the only one missing is a circuit for reverse lights. If the trailer you plan to tow does not need a reverse light circuit, you will not even need to add one.
You will need a 7-Way RV style vehicle side trailer connector. I recommend going with the Hopkins Endurance Multi-Tow, # HM48470, since it handles 7-Way, 5-Way, and 4-Way trailer connectors.

As long as the 1994 Ford F-350 came with a factory trailer connector (4-Way or 7-way are the most common) you can use the Tekonsha Wire Replacement, # 3035-P. This harness fits your truck and the Tekonsha Primus Brake Controller, # TK90160. I have included links to the installation details for both parts for you.
If the truck did not come with a factory installed trailer wiring connector of any kind, you would need to hardware the brake controller. For that you would first have to install... view full answer...
We do not offer a custom-fit 5th wheel install kit for your 1995 Ford F350, but we do have a universal-fit install kit from Reese, part # RP30035. This kit includes universal under-bed brackets and their mounting hardware, as well as the above bed rails and the hardware required to mount those to the under-bed brackets. Drilling will be required to install this kit.
I confirmed with my contact at Reese that this kit is fully compatible with their Trail Boss 5th wheel hitches. It will work... view full answer...
What you will need to do is test the plugs you have found with a circuit tester like # PTW2993 if needed. You will be testing for the various lighting functions, brake controller output (if still installed) and a good ground. If all the signals are there and working properly, you can hardwire in a 7-Way trailer connector.
I recommend a multi-tow, like # HM48470, so you will have a 4-Way, 5-Way, and a 7-Way. What you will do is remove the plug on the end that works, clip it off, and attach... view full answer...
Since the Curt A16 # C16120 can attach to your 8-foot bed on your 1993 Ford F-350 with industry-standard rails, I recommend using the Demco Hijacker Premier Series Above-Bed Base Rails and Custom Installation Kit for 5th Wheel Hitches # DM8552005-71 to install the hitch onto your bed.
The rails come with all installation hardware you need for your truck and fit whether you happen to have overload springs or not. As far as the mounting brackets, they mount to the existing holes in your... view full answer...
We can offer you two options in a universal 5th wheel install kit, part # RP30035 from Reese and part # HT31563-686 from Husky, both of which will require drilling into the truck's frame for installation. These industry-standard base rails will work with most hitches from Curt, Draw-Tite, Hidden Hitch, Reese, Valley and Husky. An installation video is linked for you.
A custom-fit installation kit is offered by B&W, their gooseneck/5th wheel base # BWGNRK1100-5W, which works with their... view full answer...
Since your existing and now discontinued Draw-Tite Activator trailer brake controller 5504 is installed using a quick-connect wiring adapter # 3035-P that plugs in under the dash you will not need anything other than the new Prodigy P2 Controller # 90885. Since both products come from the same maker they can use the same wiring adapter. Simply plug in your new P2 to the existing harness and you're all set. view full answer...
The Curt T-Connector 4-Pole harness you referenced, # C55316, is a correct fit for your 1994 Ford F-250 and plugs in to a factory connector at the rear bumper to provide basic lighting functions for your trailer.
If your truck does not have a factory 7-way trailer connector you will need to have this working 4-pole connector in place to install one for use with a brake controller. You will also need a trailer brake controller, such as the reliable and popular Prodigy P2 # 90885, as well... view full answer...
When looking at Weight Distribution (WD) systems you will want to find one that has a range that your Total Tongue Weight (TTW) falls in the middle of.
To find your TTW you will need to add the Tongue Weight (TW) of your loaded and ready- to-go trailer plus the weight of any cargo behind the rear axle of your 1995 Ford F-250/F-350. Keep in mind that your TW should be 10-15 percent of the weight of your trailer. Since 10 percent of your GVWR of 9680 is 968 and the Equal-i-zer Weight Distribution... view full answer...
Your 1994 Ford F-250 2WD 8' bed with the 7.3 diesel will need one of two installation kits depending on if it has overload springs.
The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1110 is for your truck if it has the factory overload springs. This kit will use the Installation Kit # BWGNRM1110 and Center Section # BWGNRC800.
The B&W Turnoverball Underbed Gooseneck Trailer Hitch # BWGNRK1100 is for your truck if it does not have the factory overload springs. This kit will... view full answer...
To add a 7-way to your 1996 Ford F-350 you will want to install the 7-Way Pre-Wired Car Connector # 20023, which is a confirmed fit for your truck. I've added a link to a help article on trailer wiring which details the functions of the connector. This will be a hard wire application and includes the installation instructions. As for an isolator I believe you are referring to a solenoid. For that you want the Battery Isolation Solenoid # PK5231201 which is going to switch off your F-350's... view full answer...
Depending on the size of the bolt on your 1995 Ford F-250, we have a couple of options for spacers. Timbren does recommend 1/2" to 1 1/2" clearance between your Timbren and the contact point when the truck isn't under a load. The spacer is a solution if there is more than that clearance.
If your bolt is a 1/2" bolt you will need the Timbren 1" Spacer For Raised Frame Vehicles - 1/2" bushing
# TA25723-90AD00 or the Timbren 1/2" Spacer For Raised Frame Vehicles - 1/2" bushing # TA25722-90F00.

It sounds like you've got the deep drop bumper on your 1996 Ford F-350, so the correct B&W Class V hitch for your truck is the # BWHDRH25198. It sounds like they potentially got you the # BWHDRH25122 to start, which is for use on the standard bumpers or step bumpers instead of the 12" deep drop that you've got.
I've linked an installation video of this hitch for you to check out in case you want to do the installation yourself this time, as well as all of the trailer wiring harness options... view full answer...

For a 1995 Ford F-250 that never had trailer wiring you will first need to install # 118316. Then you can install the 4- and 7-way installation kit # ETBC7. The other option is to use a circuit tester like # PTW2993 if needed to determine the functions of the wires you have found and hardwire them to the ETBC7 by cutting off the 4-Way end and splicing on the truck wires. On the ETBC7 4-Way, brown is running lights, green is right turn and brake lights and yellow is left turn and brake lights.... view full answer...

For a brake controller, the Tekonsha Prodigy P2, part # 90885 would be an excellent choice. The P2 provides safe and predictable braking in a unit that's easy to set up and easy to use. You'll need the # 3035-P brake control wiring adapter which will allow you to plug the controller in under the dash.

I confirmed with Tekonsha that they do not offer a brake controller quick-connect harness for your 1993 Ford F-350 but you can still install their outstanding Prodigy P3 trailer brake controller # 90195. If you have a factory 7-way and the under-dash connection port you can make your own harness.
You can use the pigtail plug that comes with the P3 along with Curt harness # C51312. Simply cut off the black plug (which would normally connect to a Curt brand brake controller) and splice the... view full answer...
The yellow wire on the Hopkins 7-Way RV Style Connector with Molded Cable # H20046 will not be able to charge an on-board battery, it should really be used for reverse lights. To charge the auxiliary battery on your trailer the best option is to use a battery charger such as the CTEK MULTI US 3300 12-Volt Universal Battery Charger # CTEK56353 which you would plug into a standard outlet.
You can maintain that charge when driving by running # 10-1-1 wire along with 40 amp circuit breaker... view full answer...
