We can get your customer's 2021 Chevy Express set up with a Class 4 hitch, as well as the needed trailer wiring and brake controller. I'm going to assume they do not have any OEM wiring since they do not have the factory 7-way. What you will need are the following:

- Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # 14090

- T-One Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # 118392

- Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller # ETBC7

- Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty Brake Controller # RED24FR

- Wiring Harness for Redarc Tow-Pro # RED69FR

This is a Class 4 hitch with a 10,000 lb towing capacity and 1,000 lb tongue weight capacity, and I also wanted to note it will only fit the cargo and passenger vans as opposed to the cutaway chassis (there are actually no hitches for the cutaway chassis). The 4-way will plug into the 7-way that comes with the brake controller install kit, and that kit has the rest of the parts needed for a working 7-way.

Then the Liberty will give your customer an easy to use, effective, and out of the way brake controller. It uses a knob that installs in the dash which keeps a cumbersome unit out of the cab.
