Hey Saran, thanks for reaching out!
For a direct part that works with your setup you'll need the Adapter 4 Pole to 6 Pole and 4 Pole Trailer Wiring Adapter # 37175.
While this does work, what I recommend doing is installing the Adapter 4-Pole to 7-Pole and 4-Pole # 37185 and using the Adapter # 47549 to make your trailer 6-Way compatible with the 7-Way on this adapter. Reason being that a 7-Way is way more common of a connection so this will help to "future-proof" your vehicle side of the connection.
