Question:
Hi, my local dealer only sells the weld on hinge unit, can I bolt this on instead of welding, or use bolts as well as welding, thanks. The unit is for a boat trailer.

For a 3 inch by 3 inch bolt on trailer tongue hinge kit you will need to use the Fulton Bolt On Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit, # FHDPB330301. This hinge kit is designed to bolt on without welding and allows you to create up to a 48 inch long foldaway tongue on your boat trailer, depending on the gross trailer weight and max tongue weight of the trailer.
I added a chart that shows the GTW, TW and Maximum Pivot Length for the # FHDPB330301 fold-away. You should always install the fold -away at the shortest possible location for your application.
