For your 2018 Chevy 4500 Cutaway Chassis, the brake controller wiring you will need is the hardwiring kit # 5506 to connect to your 7-way. If you don't already have the 7-way then use # ETBC7 for your brake controller and trailer wiring.

For your brake controller, I recommend using the Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR. This will give you a really clean look for your motorhome and it won't take up usable space.

Yes. Since you already have the 7-way, the Curt Echo # C51180 is a great option that will work well for you. It will absolutely save you some money because there isn't any installation cost. You simply plug it in and pull up the app on your mobile device to adjust the settings.
