trailer brakes/light adapter ?
I've got a friends 25 goose -neck hooked up and ready to go tomorrow but need an adapter to hook up the trailer brakes and lights. Where can I get that tonight? I need it for in the morning.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Adapter from what to what? 7-way to 6-way can be found at a trailer repair/supply shop. This all assumes you have a brake control box in your truck. If you're trying to go from a flat 4 to a 6 or 7 prong, no such animal exists. Even if it did, it wouldn't function without a brake controller.

Make sure you check carefully that everything works before you tow. Especially your brakes.
I learned this summer, when hooking rental equipment to Dad's truck, that apparently there are a couple different ways to wire a 6 prong and therefore a couple different adapters.
