Question:
I own a new 2023 Ford Explorer XLT - Im looking to install a hitch and wiring harness. Will the 2022 version work on the 2023?

Expert Reply:
For a 2023 Ford Explorer you would need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness # C56093 if you did not have the factory trailer connector. If you did you would instead need the Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness for Factory Tow Package # C55384. For the trailer hitch I recommend the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver # CU78FR.
I've attached some video below that will help walk you through the installation process of these products if you plan to do them yourself.
