Option for Extending a 3 inch by 3 inch Trailer Tongue
Updated 04/13/2015 | Published 04/11/2015
Question:
Good morning, I am looking for a Trailer Tongue Extender for my boat trailer. My trailer tongue is 3x 3. Do you have one that would fit my trailer? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
The only way I can recommend a tongue extender for your trailer that has a 3 inch by 3 inch channel is to remove your current coupler, install the hinge kit part # FHDPW330300 in place of it and then install your coupler onto a length of 3 by 3 channel, and then install this into the other end of the hinge kit.
This will give you an extension for the tongue of your trailer and will allow you to fold the coupler back for an additional clearance if needed.
Otherwise you would need to take your trailer to a qualified fabricator with experience working on trailers to have him come up with a way to lengthen the tongue of your trailer.
