Then he can rewire it, or can he?

Yes. There are kits that you plug the 4 pin into then run the other wires.

It is a 2015 jeep wrangler. They still only come with a 4 pin. I'm new to pulling trailers and most all of those come with brakes these days, so might as well use.

2 door or 4 door Wrangler?

If 2 door you will be getting close to the limit for towing, if not over, so I'd definitely wire in a brake controller.

This would be easy to wire. Plug in your 4 pin and then run the other wires.

Again, really appreciate the input and points to consider. It is the Unlimited/4-door Rubicon, which does seem to give me a bit more room, but I am concerned about bumping up against the limit. The trailer is listed at 1950lbs and most atvs seem to be in the 800lbs range, and I believe the unlimited Rubicon is rated to 3500, so I'm hopeful I can make it work.
