Brake Controller Recommendation For A 1999 Ford Ranger
Question:
I have a 1999 Ford ranger that I need to put a brake controller on with all of the wiring and circuit breakers needed to run to the back and turn the four flat into a seven way around so I have trailer brakes if you could give me a list of items that I would need to accomplish this project I would appreciate it

Absolutely!
To turn your factory 4-pole into a 7-way connector, I recommend going with the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7. This will utilize your existing 4-pole connector, and provide your 1999 Ford Ranger with a 7-way trailer connector.
For a brake controller, I recommend taking a look at the Tekonsha Prodigy P2 Trailer Brake Controller # 90885. This brake controller features 3 boost levels for braking power adjustments, an easy to read LED display, and a continuous diagnostic check that will alert you of any potential issues.
