Hey there Lorna. Yes, the Demco Drum Brake Actuator # DM28CV or Demco Brake Actuator Disc # DM33CV will 100% fit your 3" wide 4" tall trailer tongue. Even though the actuator says 3" wide and 2-1/2" tall, it will work because it fits width wise, and the taller tongue won't negatively affect it in any way.
Install process will still be the same, you just may need to drill new bolt holes depending on your current setup.
What trailer and actuator do you currently have?
