Up grade to trailer TPMS??

I have a 2019 F250 Lariat without ultimate trailer package. Has anyone been able to add the trailer tpms kit with out it?? I found additional connectors on frame rail. I was wondering if these are for adding it??

Too many available TPMS systems on the market that don't require you to plug in to the truck. I'd consider one of those first!

I use the
TireMinder i10 RV TPMS TireMinder i10 RV TPMS
with 4 sensors and it has been flawless. I had a BellaCorp one before this and the product was horrible and the customer service was even worse. The device constantly lost connection and programing it was a nightmare. CS answered most of the times I had to call them, but then the owner got upset with me and cut me off and tried to tell me I was doing something wrong... This was after almost 3 years that I had been fooling with this stupid thing, and it just did not work. They reluctantly sent me a repeater for free but it didn't help either. I ended up driving home about 1400 miles on one trip with only 2-3 of the sensors working, and I didn't trust those either... I gave that unit away after that trip and bought the TireMinder and it has been a breeze to set up and presents the information much better and easier than the BellaCorp one did.

So, I can't help you on hooking up the OEM TPMS unit, but I agree with above, I would just use an aftermarket one instead. And the TireMinder has been a great product for us over the last 2 years now! The only dropped signal I had from it was because a fuse blew and knocked power out to the repeater. I talked my neighbor into one too (which was also the guy I gave the Bella Corp TPMS too) and he says the same as I did... the BellaCorp was a nightmare, but he has had nothing but good experiences with the TireMinder. We were just discussing them yesterday morning actually!
