Since you already have the 4-way trailer connector at the rear of your 2000 Toyota Tundra all you'll need to add is a 7-way using our # ETBC7 kit. This will provide you with the 7-way and include everything you need to install an electric brake controller in your truck. I've linked a video of the install on a 2002 Tundra for you.

For the brake controller itself I recommend the Prodigy P3 # 90195. It has an easy to use LCD which makes it one of the best controllers on the market. It will work great with your tandem axle trailer as well since it's designed for up to 4 axles.
