Ok well I bought an old jet ski just for the trailer for $50 bucks from a mechanic shop in Houston to convert the trailer for packing the 12 foot jon boat I recently bought the wife. Due to it being a little short I made new longer bunk boards that hung several feet off the end of the trailer. After doing that got to looking around on here about how to extend the tongue cause I just didn't like the way it looked. Well while browsing around I came across the Karavan thread and thought that trailer looks a lot like mine but the tongue stops where the two side beams meet in the front but my tongue goes all the way to the first cross beam. So off to Google and image search and a lot of trailer are like that. So here is what I did.
Drilled these two holes to accept the U-bolt, pulled the cross bolt slide forward re-ran light wiring down the channel, tightened U-bolt, drilled new cross bolt hole inserted cross bolt and tightened.
I will need to shorten the bunk boards but will do that later. I then started on some side boards.
Covered
One bolt started waiting to be squared.
Stbd. Side done.
Fist bar up on Port side.
