Hey guys! Been a while since I've been here..
I'm looking to install a swing away tongue on my trailer. It's a 2002 700LX with the single axle trailer.
I've check the local shops and they charge an extra good chunk of change to weld one on for me. So, being the tight wad that I am, I'm considering doing the bolt on one myself. Now, before I embark on the journey I gotta say i don't have a full blown garage shop, so It'll be me, a hack saw (maybe a sawzall), and my drill. Can I handle this on my own? Can I shorten the tongue back to where the vertical stabilizer bar sits?
Just curious if the bolt is a safe bet and something I can handle? Anyone else done it here them selves?
Thanks
