Kit consists of 4 wheel sensors, transmitter box you attach to your trailer, and a wiring harness from the trailer transmitter that plugs into the 12-pin on the trucks trailer electrical connection. It is a customer installed kit and available from Ford parts. Sorry, I know the option code, but not the actual part number.

The 35' limitation is the wiring harness. That should be easy to extend if your trailer is longer. The TPMS receiver box is placed amidship near the axles so longer trailers won't be a problem for the sensor - receiver distance, just the harness to the front of the trailer. I would definitely lengthen the harness and not try to make up for it by placing the receiver farther from the trailer axles.

I actually prefer a TST system over Ford's offering as it has a constant scan of all tires showing not only pressure but also tire temp. Ford's "built in" option is nice, but not good enough IMO.

You must have it on a bumper pull. With a goose neck or fifth wheel you lose a lot of cable to have slack for the plug in the bed of the truck, also 8-10 feet on the neck of the trail then another 4 feet or so going down to get under the trailer. I didn’t measure it but I would guess the TPMS harness is around 18 feet.

This is where I source my ford trailer parts, they also manufacture harnesses in-house.
