Recommended Trailer Hitch Receiver, Wiring and Hitch For a 2022 Ford Bronco Badlands
Question:
I have a 2dr 2022 Badlands and need a trailer hitch with 7 pin wiring. I have led lights. I need it long enough to work with Sasquatch spare. I plan on towing a cargo trailer with solar and battery power. Also hot water and appliances.

The Draw-Tite Max-Frame Trailer Hitch Receiver # DT37GR is our furthest reaching receiver for your 2022 Ford Bronco Badlands. This receiver places the hitch pin hole 3-1/2" behind your rear bumper.
The Tekonsha OEM Replacement Vehicle Wiring Harness # TK55VR will provide you with a 7-way connector and allow you to install the Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR using an Adapter # 331-TPH-017. The Mounting Bracket # PK12711U will allow you to mount the 7-way to the welded tab on the Draw-Tite receiver.
I recommend using a Equal-i-zer weight distribution hitch with your cargo trailer. This will help to distribute the weight and reduce rear end sag on your Bronco. You will need to select the correct system based on the weight of your trailer from the list below. You can pair these with the Extended Equal-i-zer Weight Dist Shank # EQ90-02-4600 to ensure clearance with your Sasquatch spare tire. You will need a 1-7/8" 12pt Thin Walled Socket # ALL643216 to install the hitch ball included with the weight distribution hitch.
