Ranger Tremor without a factory brake controller? Does a factory lift kit lower towing? Much squat?

Ranger Tremor tows 7500 lbs with ease. An off-road truck that doesn't sacrifice towing capability. Must lift kits lowering towing. This wider, taller mountain goat does it all. But you'll need a brake controller. Ford dealers offer an Australian REDARC controller that we have installed in other trucks. Usually we use the AutoBrake wired on my trailer, but I installed it too close to my jack handle and we've beat and beat that power box and now it's cracked. I'll get another one. So in the meantime I bought a Curt Echo. It was an easy install, just downloaded the app to my phone. Plugged the Echo in the trucks trailer plug and plugged in the trailer male end. It works, runs of the trucks brakes and on the phone app I could run it manually and adjust the settings. Surprisingly the Ranger Tremor doesn't require weight distributing hitch to get to the max towing. The Tremor squatted 3 inches with a WDH. So we know without it would squat more. Using my Geny Hitch and WDH, handling was good and the way I like it. Mirrors were good with a 8.5 ft. wide car trailer.
