Hey Joel, thanks for reaching out. For starters, the class 4 hitch for the 2024 Ford Transit T250 is the Curt # C14012.

As far as wiring, we do have a plug-in option for a 4-flat. Then we have a kit to upgrade that to a 7-way and add your brake controller. Here is what you will need:

- Curt T-Connector Vehicle Wiring Harness with 4-Pole Flat Trailer Connector # C56327

- Universal Installation Kit for Trailer Brake Controller - 7-Way RV and 4-Way Flat - 10 Gauge Wires # ETBC7

Those two kits combined have everything you need to add a 4-flat/7-way combo, including all the necessary wires for a brake controller. For that, the Tekonsha P3 # 90195 is what I recommend.

Take a look at the install video I linked below.

Do you plan to install all this yourself, or are you taking it to a shop?

@JoelB we installed the same hitch on my 2024 Transit 350. Hitch was well made, but it was a PITA to install. 2 holes in frame were slightly off from tabs on hitch receiver and there was no factory hole in the framerail as mentioned in instructions. Frame rail was boxed so I could not access easily. Had to drill hole in side of frame, large enough for nut to fit through, then drill through bottom of frame. Hope for the best, expect the worst. Good luck!

Hi Michael! Do you already have a 7-way on your Transit? If you don't have wiring, you need to start by adding a 4-way with #C56327 (single rear wheel) or #C42MJ (dually). Once you have your 4-way installed you can upgrade it to a 7-way using the…

I read up on the Surly Big Dummy, and found that the wheelbase is up to 58 inches for the large model, which would be accommodated by a regular sized platform bike rack like the Hollywood Racks #HR1450Z.

Hey Randy, thanks for reaching out. That isn't the typical intended use for the Lippert Spare Tire Winch #LC159056 but I see no reason why you couldn't mount it under a gooseneck neck. As long as you can find a nice secure mounting location,…
