Expert Reply:
The Roadmaster BrakeMaster supplemental braking system # RM-9160 will work with your 2011 Ford Ranger if the motor home has air or air over hydraulic brakes. You will also need seat adapter # RM-88151 for the system to fit in the truck correctly. And you will need a brake light relay # RM-88400 relay is required to prevent the towed vehicle's turn signal from overriding the signal from the RV if your towed vehicle is wired with a standard 4-diode kit.
There are other braking systems that you could use with your Ranger. I have included a link to them for you.
As far as how long it takes for a professional installation that can vary but Roadmaster says a professional installation should take about 4 hours.
