Yes, the Plug-N-Tow (R) Vehicle Wiring Harness # 40185 will fit and work on your 2008 Ford F-150 XL with the 4.2L engine and no factory tow package.
The Mounting Brackets # 18140 and # 18144 will allow you to secure your 4-way to the receiver cross tube. This will keep the connector protected from road debris and prevent you from having to drill into the receiver or your bumper.
