so i need to make my trailer about 3' longer...
« on: June 02, 2013, 09:52:05 PM »


i put a 18' competitive trailer under a 21' boat... ive been looking for a 21' trailer and not having much luck so I need to make this one longer in the meanwhile so I can get out on the water.

problem is, is that where the tongue sits right now, its about 1/2" from my garage door, extending the midsection of the trailer itself really isnt an option.  so I'm hoping I can add 3' of tongue to it on a swing or a slide... the slide would be cool if there were some extra section slid inside so I can make the trailer longer so I dont have to put my truck in the water on a shallow ramp.

Does anyone know a place or someone that can do something like this?

Shouldn't be to hard since it looks like a bent 31/2 channel steel. You can cut it where it meets and lengthen it and just as a few gusset supports
