Hey all,
So I got my 94 F-Superduty earlier this year and have been having a great time stocking up on firewood for this coming winter.
The truck has an extremely heavy duty bumper/tow hitch setup and I would like to setup a trailer harness and controller for the truck so I can start hauling trailers of wood.
What wire gauge size is recommended for the harness from the brake controller to the trailer connector? I have a 7+5 pin combination plug.
I read that 10AWG is sufficient. Now, is there a cable on the market that has the 7 conductors in a single jacket or would I be better off getting one 4 conductor and one 3 conductor for the run? Trying not to drop hundreds of $$$ on the wiring, but also dont want to hackjob it.
