Hey Colin! I reached out to Swing King and they said the trailer tongue will slide in approximately 3-1/2" on either side on the #TD88FR. With an overall length of 18-1/4" you're adding about 11-1/4" to the tongue. I went ahead and…

What part is this in reference to, Doug? I know the A-60 is a brake actuator, but are you asking about the outer cover #T4324600, or something else? If it's the #DX53CR swing-away hinge, then yes, it will need to be welded on both sides.
WOW! I am impressed! I called to place my order and real person answered, spoke perfect English, albeit a slight southern accent, and my order was sent within a day, shipped quickly and I had it a few days later. I saved over a hundred dollars over local and installed it my self. I cant imagine how that they could do any better. THANKS!

Maximize Your Garage Space with a Folding Trailer Tongue
Folding trailer tongues are a game-changer for boat and utility trailer owners looking to maximize garage space. They allow you to easily fold the trailer tongue, making it possible to store your trailer in tighter spaces. Consider the weight capacity, ease of installation, and compatibility with your trailer when choosing the right one.
Installation is generally straightforward, often taking about 30-45 minutes. Many find it easy enough for a teenager to handle, especially with clear instructions. Having the right tools, like good drill bits, can make the process smoother. Some prefer welding for a more permanent solution.
A folding trailer tongue allows you to store your trailer in smaller garages, freeing up space. It also provides security by enabling you to keep your boat or trailer in a secured place. This convenience means less hassle moving gear in and out.
Some experience slight flexing or sagging at the hinge, which can cause vertical play. This is usually not a problem with heavier boats or longer distances from the hinge to the hitch. Rubber inserts may wear out over time but can be replaced.
Consider the weight rating to ensure it can handle your trailer's load. Look for quality hinges and pins, and decide if you prefer a bolt-on or weld-on installation. Check compatibility with your trailer's dimensions and your storage needs.
Folding trailer tongues are built to last, with some lasting over 10 years even on rough roads. Quality construction ensures they hold up well, with minimal signs of wear even after a year of use. Regular maintenance can extend their lifespan.
