Question:
I have a Continental JB127 trailer that weighs 200 lbs and a 110 lbs boat. Id like to mount a swing tongue kit behind the winch. Can this be done?

Hello Bob.
Yes, installing the fold away behind the winch will not be an issue, main thing is to not go back further than what is recommended on the chart which goes by the Gross Trailer Weight Rating. I looked up the specs on the Continental JB127 and your gross trailer weight rating is 1,550 lbs, so you can put it at the max point of 48" back from the ball. I have included an image to show how to measure.
