First lets start with a trailer hitch for your 2020 Ford Transit T350 which for that we have the part # e98842 which has great towing capacities and installs easily. I attached an install video link to this page for more info as well.
Next for trailer wiring the easiest to install and most reliable option is the Curt T-Connector part # C56327 which would be where you'd need to start for wiring in a brake controller like our very reliable and easy to use Brake EVN # TK63VR.
Next for converting to a 7-way and installing the brake controller you'd need the # ETBC7 which comes with everything needed to accomplish that.
If you wanted to do some towing you might be interested in etrailer ball mount kit # 989900. It comes with 2 ball mounts; one with a 3/4 inch rise or 2 inch drop and one with a 2-3/4 inch rise or 4 inch drop. It also includes a 1-7/8 inch ball, 2 inch ball, hitch pin with clip, and a storage bag.
If the ball mount kit does not include a ball mount with the right rise or drop to tow the trailer level, check out the link I have included that explains how to measure to choose a ball mount to tow the trailer level.
