I would use this one http://shop.easternmarine.com/index....categoryID=209 The 7-blade RV is more of a universal set-up, you can get adapters to go to other sockets at most any parts store, and you can run reverse lights to the back of your trailer (helps at night!) or use the extra hot wire for a power tongue jack or power winch if you want to. I would usehttp://shop.easternmarine.com/index....categoryID=210 this to plug into your factory wiring harness under the rear of the truck if you don't already have one. Be sure to use the grease provided and don't be afraid to put a lot in there, it will make sure your wiring connections don't corrode. I would use this onehttp://www.mytscstore.com/detail.asp...roductID=17299 (the 7:4 model 1043001) to mount to your truck. It will plug right in to the "T" adapter pigtail. This way you have no splices into the wiring harness on the outside of the truck, and, you have a handy flat-four plug right on the same unit in case you have the need to pull a trailer with a flat-four connection. Hope this helps. Bill
PS-make sure you put a good ground from the socket to the truck frame!

Thats exactly what I'm looking for. That whole wire harness thing threw me for a loop until I checked it out the other day.
Thanks for the links Bill !
