Hey Kathi, we don't have any couplers that fit a 3.5 inch wide tongue so best option might be to have the tongue of your trailer replaced with a 3 inch wide tongue like the current trailers come with so you could install the Demco part # DM15000-52.

Hey Kathi, did you end up replacing the tongue on your Avalon camper so you could use the Demco coupler? Knowing how that worked out could help others with older trailers facing the same issue.
