Expert Reply:
To install a 7-way on your 2011 Ford Escape will first require you to install the 4-way kit part # 118551 which is easiest install and most reliable. Then to convert it to a 7-way you'd need the # 37185 for if the trailer does not have brakes or part # ETBC7 for if the trailer does. You'd also need a brake controller at that point with the Draw Tite Brake EVN # TK63VR.
