Yes, the Tekonsha Primus IQ Trailer Brake Controller # TK90160 will work for your 2003 Ford Explorer Sport Trac . This proportional brake controller automatically levels when mounted within a 90-degree vertical range. Includes digital display, 3 boost levels, battery protection and continuous diagnostics. Easily transfer between different automobiles.
If your vechicle does not have a 7-way connection, you will need the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. If your vehicle already has a 4-way flat, this kit includes everything you need to install an electric trailer brake controller and 7-way connector.
If there's not an existing 4-way flat on your vehicle, you will need the T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118344.
Since you have your trailer hitch, ball mount, ball and pin and clip. This should be all you need to safely tow a tandem wheel axle trailer.
