RE: IML: Towing travel trailer with 1968 Crown Convertible...

["Rob McCall" <Rob_Mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Javier,

I'm glad you liked the idea.  If it's physically possible to fit it all
behind the bumper, I think it will make for a cleaner installation.
Completely invisible when not towing.  

I forgot to mention in my last note that wiring up the controller isn't bad.
I used a kit made by Hoppy when I wired my Dakota.  The only wire that
needed to splice into the truck's harness was the one to the brake light
switch.  Everything else was a new wire.  The 7-flat RV connector has a
provision for reverse lights, but my car trailer didn't have them so there
was nothing to connect there.  I did run a wire to the cab for that for
future use.  

I can't remember if the wiring diagram came with the brake controller,
harness or RV connector.  It may have come with all of them.  It's not
difficult to figure out.

If you do go with the receiver hidden behind the plate, be sure to hide that
RV connector back there too.

Rob!

That's a great idea to have the plate flip down...  I'll take a look at the
possibilities, but for now the plan is to have the receiver poke out
underneath the license plate.
