Re: Extending Trailer Tongue?

now that I think about it more, maybe the tail is wagging the dog. If your trailer doesn't fit, trade trailers. yours is a good brand that appears to be in good shape. Any used trialer dealers in your area?

There are a few trailer dealers around, and I would not mind trading someone if the deal was right. Sure would be a lot easier. Although, i don't mind making this one work either.

I am looking for a 3"x4"x9ft. 1/16" thick. The current tongue is 5ft long, and 1/16" thick.

mechanical steel 4"X3"X9' 1/8" thick is $55.20 50.5 lbs

Not a bad price until you ship it that's estimated at $278!!

UPS ground would be about $52 though thanks to googlefu (estimated)

Hummmmmmmmmmmm

One additional plus to extending the tongue length is that most boats, trailers will usually track better. That is less sway or maybe fishtailing if that has been a problem.
