Hey Marc, we can help but we don't have the exact harness you are wanting. You'd need to go with the part # 22292 and then cut the black connector off of it and then wire it to the Hopkins controller you have. We used to have Hopkins harnesses but we haven't been able to get them for a while.

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
