Starting with your 2020 Toyota Tacoma SR5 you will need the etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver # e98905. This will accept the Fastway e2 Weight Distribution # FA92-00-0800 to connect to your Coleman 17B travel trailer. You will need the 2-5/16" Hitch Ball # EQ91-00-6100 and 1-7/8" 12pt Thin Walled Socket # ALL643216 to install the hitch ball.
You will need the Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness # 22117 to install a 7-way on your Tacoma. This includes the wiring for a trailer brake controller. I recommend the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR which you will be able to connect to the Tekonsha wiring above with the Adapter # 331-TPH-017. You can use the Mounting Panel # 331-TPSI-002 to place the control knob in an open slot on your dash for a factory appearance.
