You can use the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Brake controller part # 90195 in your new 2019 Ram 3500. Brake controllers are not so much vehicle specific as the adapter that is used to plug them into the vehicle. The Tekonsha P3 will plug into a port under the dash on the driver's side of the 2019 Ram 3500 with part # 3024-P. I have attached photos and a video for your reference. The Prodigy P3 can be reset by unplugging it for 15 minutes.

Brake systems are not dependent on the hub bolt pattern. So you can use the Electric Trailer Brake Kit #AKEBRK-7-SA for 12 inch hub/drums or #AKEBRK-35-SA for 10 inch hub/drums. Then use #10-1-1 wire sold by the foot for your brake magnet wiring.…
