7-Way Recommendation for 2005 Ford F-150 with 4-Way
Question:
My F150 has the factory 4 pole. I want to use a 7 pole. Do I have to cut and splice or is there a harness available?

Expert Reply:
If your trailer does not have brakes all you would need is the part # 37185 as an adapter to convert the 4-way to a 7-way.
If you do have trailer brakes you would need the # 3035-P, the # 37185, and a brake controller.
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.
