The Tekonsha Prodigy P3 Trailer Brake Controller part # 90195 is an excellent option for a 1996 Volvo Dump Truck. In order to install this you'll need the Wiring Kit for 2, 4, 6, and 8 Brake Electric Trailer Brake Controllers part # 5506 and Extra Wire part # 10-2-1. This has everything you need to power the controller and send the signal all the way back to the trailer connector. If you already have a standard RV 7-way then you can stop there but if not you'd need the Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole part # 37185 and Curt 4-Way Flat Trailer Connector with Circuit Protected Powered Tail Light Converter part # C56496.
