The Tow Ready Replacement 7-Way Harness and Socket # 20147 is designed to plug into any US Car connector 7-Way like the Hopkins Endurance 7-Way Connector # HM40940. This particular 7-Way includes the needed hardware to bolt it directly to a bumper or truck bed, but you could also add the Mounting Bracket # 18138 that will work perfectly for a hang-down application.
If you have an accessible hitch crosstube you could also add the Tow Ready Mount # 18140 for a no-drill installation. This will let you attach the brackets to the hitch itself without having to drill any holes or make any other modifications. I have attached a short video review below that you can check out as well.
