The only trailer wiring harnesses we currently offer would provide a 7-way trailer connector like the Tekonsha
# 22124. At the point where the harness plugs into the 7-way trailer connector, you could use a T-connector like part # 118384 which would provide a 4 pole connector as well. Another option would be to use an adapter like part # PK12716.

Unfortunately, the # 118316 wouldn't fit your Ranger.
