Question:

Hi, I have a 2019 F150 that did not come from the factory with a hitch or 4/7 pin connectors. I was looking at using Item # e63TR. Which wiring harness will allow me to add a 7 pin connector and what are all the parts I would need? Thank you for your help.

Expert Reply:

I would be happy to help you. The etrailer Trailer Hitch Receiver item # e63TR is a confirmed fit for your 2019 Ford F-150. The wiring harness you will need to add a 7-way connector to your truck is the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 7-Way Trailer Connector item # C56413. I have attached installation videos for both parts.

To control your trailer's brakes you are going to need a brake controller. I recommend the Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller item # 90195. This is a proportional brake controller that works with trailers having up to 4 axles. The brake controller activates your trailer brakes in proportion to your F-150's braking action. It automatically adjusts the trailer's braking based on deceleration of your truck.

You will also want the Tekonsha Plug-In Wiring Adapter for Electric Brake Controllers item # 22292. This allows you to plug the Prodigy P3 directly into your F-150 without cutting or splicing wires.

To round out your towing setup I recommend the Curt Towing Starter Kit for 2" Hitches item # C45534. This towing kit will provide you with a 2" ball, a fixed ball mount with a 3/4" rise and 2" drop, and is rated for up to 7,500 lbs. It also includes a hitch pin and clip, hitch receiver lock with keys, hitch cover, and a storage case.
