I did some research on the 2017 Ford Ranger. It looks like the United States did not start producing the Ranger here until 2019. Although, it looks like Australia did come out with a 2017 version. I just wanted to confirm that you are looking for a 2017 model.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for that confirmation. Unfortunately, I confirmed with Curt that the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector # C56431 will not fit your 2017 Ranger. With that being said, we do carry a splice-in alternative: the Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat # ETBC7. This wiring harness will allow your Ranger to have the capability to attach a brake controller to your setup. If you need a brake controller, I recommend the Curt Echo # C51180. The installation process of the echo is quick and easy and does not involve any additional bulky wiring harnesses.
