I have a 14' jon boat trailer that has a 2-3/4" round pipe that is the main body frame. I was thinking of having an extension put on the tongue of it to make it 2ft longer. once i do this, I was going to replace the existing coupler, with this: https://www.amazon.com/Husky-87073-Width-Straight-Coupler/dp/B004OK86O4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1391397025&sr=8-1&keywords=trailer+coupler
If I do this, has anyone ever mounted one of these with bolts? The existing one I have now was welded on by the previous owner(s). with it being a trailer to haul the boat around, are the bolts really that great of a fastening item? To me, a weld would be best. but if i dont have a welder, then the bolts are the only option.
thoughts?
