Universal Way to Install 7-Way and Brake Controller on Vehicle
Question:
I have a 2000 model W3500 truck, like the Isuzu NPR. I want to wire up two different trailers to it: both trailers are 7 pin rv plug. What will I need?

Expert Reply:
You will need to start with a 4-way (if you do not have one). For that you would want the # 119250KIT.
From there 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. I attached installation instructions and an install video for this product as well.
For a brake controller I would recommend the Prodigy P2 Brake Controller part # 90885. This is our best selling brake controller because of how well it works and how easy it is to setup.
