Recommended Trailer Hitch and Brake Controller for a 1993 Ford E-250
Question:
My proposed tow vehicle is a 1993 Ford E-250 cargo van with the V8 engine. Rated tow capacity is 7600#. I would like a recommendation for a hitch that can safely match that capacity. Also a trailer brake controller if you sell them.

Helpful Expert Reply:
The trailer hitch I recommend for a 1993 Ford E-250 is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 14053 which offers up to a 10,000 lb weight capacity. For a trailer brake controller, the Tekonsha BRAKE-EVN Trailer Brake Controller part # TK63VR is a great option and offers plug-in-play installation when used with the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers part # 3035-P (Models with Factory 7-Way).
