[PSUBS-MAILIST] Extending tongue on trailer

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

 Tim,Build the extension with one tube inside another like Cliff did.  I have mine on top because I did not want to cut my hitch off.  You are building new so you can go the way Cliff did.  Also if you can put idler wheels on the top and bottom of the outer tube that will help.Hank

Hank and Cliff,

  

During the Flathead Lake expedition I took notice of your varying telescoping extensions on your trailers.  

  

Hank, your extension appears to ride along the top of the centre rail. What method have you incorporated to ensure the extension stays aligned during extension and retraction?

  

Cliff, your extension appeared to be within the center rail. How did you install a stop to ensure that the extension could not be pulled right out of the rail?

  

Thanks, guys.

  

Tim
