Hey Larry,

Yep, The Redarc Tow-Pro Liberty # RED52VR will fit your 2004 Chevy Suburban.

You can probably reuse your existing harness going to your current controller, but I'll need to know the brand of your current controller.

You'll need one of the following adapters based on your current controller brand:

Curt controller currently # 331-TPH-019

Tekonsha controller currently # 331-TPH-017

Hopkins controller currently # 331-TPH-018

With any of these harnesses, you'll just unplug your current controller, plug the adapter into your current harness, and then plug the other end into the new Redarc controller.

Mine is a Draw-Tite activator. Do you have an adapter for that, or a controller that can splice in?

@Larry The Tekonsha adapter # 331-TPH-017 above works with the harnesses used for Draw-Tite controllers such as your Draw-Tite Activator as well, as Draw-Tite and Tekonsha are sister companies.
