dalfollo,
I do notice a wide difference between the lowest setting and the highest.
Mine are the older 9000's, that on the manual version had 5 settings.
But mine are adjusted via an aircompressor that changes the staging. So the adjustment can be fine tuned.
The newer ones have 9...

And tow a 3000lb popup.
On the Explorer I had the 9000's with in-cab controls.

As far as the black rectangular plug, if it's the one mounted right under the dash and visible, that should be the one used for plugging into the vehicle's computer for diagnostics and programming.

I'm will be towing a 3000 lb popup trailer and was wondering if any of you had a list of what the tow package includes.
