[QUOTE="lugoismad, post: 380710, member: 16518"] Took out a scale and measured my tongue weight. 104 lbs. And since my civic has a max tongue weight of 100lbs, I can't screw with that. I was thinking I could move everything forward 8" to get the transom on the bunks, but that won't work. The post is only bolted to the trailer, not welded. I have some aluminum bar stock. I'm going to close off the triangle its forming like so: [img]https://i.imgur.com/uOgUEzA.png[/img] To increase the safety threshold on my post. Because now that I'm looking at it, it looks a bit sketchy... [/QUOTE]
