Hi William,
Your Ford OEM brake controller would would with a Hydrastar EOH Actuator # HSE7K-TR1SO if you can change your braking type from electric to electric over hydraulic in its settings. That being said, OEM brake controllers are notoriously bad with EOH actuators and tend to have a delayed response, which isn't great when you need your brakes in an emergency.
I recommend installing the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Brake Controller # RED44FR to give yourself a more responsive brake controller that's also very inconspicuous. The Redarc Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # 331-TPH-007 will make installation of this brake controller super easy. I've attached a short video below where Brad will walk you through the installation process.
