Expert Reply:
I have included a video that details this installation process below, specifically just past the 6:00 minute mark. The tow wiring I recommend for your 2021 Ford Ranger is the Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit, part # RM-15267. With this setup, you can use your trucks tail lights and wiring system and prevent feedback from your RV. The installation can be time consuming, but most of that time will be spent routing your wire from the front of your truck to the rear of the truck.
Please keep in mind that you will also need a tow bar, base plates, safety cables, and a supplemental braking system to go along with this Roadmaster Diode wiring kit. My recommendations for these parts are as follows.
Demco ExcaliBar-III Non-Binding Tow Bar - Victory Series - RV Mount - 2" Hitch - 10,500 lbs, part # DM9511013
Demco Tabless Base Plate Kit - Removable Arms, part # DM9519343
Demco Stay-IN-Play DUO Supplemental Braking System w/ Wireless Coachlink Monitor - Proportional, part # DM86VR
I have included product description links, a video demo link, and two installation video links below.
