Expert Reply:
For your 2022 Toyota 4Runner with the factory tow package, the best brake controller is the Tow-Pro Elite from Redarc, and to mount it all you'll need is the correct wiring adapter:
- Redarc Tow-Pro Elite Trailer Brake Controller # RED44FR
- Plug-and-Play Wiring Harness # RED49FR
The reason the Tow-Pro Elite # RED44FR is the best is because of its easy-to-use control knob which keeps a cumbersome brake controller unit out of your cab, and because it gives you more control over your trailer braking power than any other brake controller.
The control knob of the Tow-Pro Elite can be installed anywhere you like in your 4Runner, so you'll have more space and won't be bumping your knee against a unit that has to mount under the dash, which is a bane to the majority of brake controller users. There is even a mounting panel for the knob that works specifically with your 4Runner, the Mounting Panel for Redarc Tow-Pro Trailer Brake Controller Control Knob # 331-TPSI-002.
The other thing the Tow-Pro Elite does better than any other controller is give you control. It has two braking modes, the standard proportional control, which powers your trailer brakes with the same intensity as your vehicle brakes, or user-controlled mode, which allows you to apply the brakes with a pre-set amount of power your choosing. This can be really helpful in a number of situations, like going off-road or areas with longer descents because you can set your trailer braking to a higher intensity to keep the trailer from pushing your 4Runner.
