I do have an option for you but the fold-away trailer tongue adapters we offer cannot be used on trailers with an aluminum tongue. The adapter is steel so mating this to an aluminum tongue could cause galvanic corrosion and there is also concerns with strength. That said, many aluminum frame trailers have a steel tongue so if this is what you have or you can convert the trailer to this you'll be able to use one of the Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit listed below.
