Hey Kevin, do you have a 4-way currently? I attached a help article down below that covers the process but basically all of the needed wiring to wire in a 7-way and brake controller is at the rear truck's frame rail and in a port under the dash. So to convert to a 7-way you'd want the part # 37185 and then for a brake controller with the correct install harness you'd want the part # RED96CR which comes with the connector that plugs in under your dash.

Hey Kevin, how did things go with adding the 7-way connector and the Redarc brake controller on your F150? Your update could make it easier for the next person wiring up a similar setup.
