    Did the trailer come with the 7-pin plug or did you wire it in?

    I towed for the first time last week and my buddy's trailer had a 4-pin, so I had to buy an adapter.

    Where did you get the 7-pin connector you used? Product number?

    Bought the receptacle from O'reily's. Took about an hour total for the install. Sorry for multiple posts but I couldn't get more than 1 picture to upload at one time from my silly iPhone. I'm happy with it. The 7 pin on the truck was broken from trail riding, now it is up and out of the way.

    Truck had the tow package, so the 7 pin was already there. The brand name of the plug is Hopkins, part #48480. I looked at a bunch of plugs and this was the only one I saw that had some sort of gasket for weather proofing.

    Thanks for the info. I already have a 7-pin but I am just looking for alternative locations/mounting.

    That's the same place I put mine. I was able to use the factory 7pin, did it before I could break it off. It keeps the wire up and out of the way.

    Not exactly today, but I added a Fold-A-Cover G4 Elite last week. Then did another custom mod to the front bumper...

    It could've been a lot worse, luckily that's all that happened and no one was hurt. Just paid it off, so of course something like this had to happen.
