Easier Solution than Swapping Trailer from 2 inch Ball to 1-7/8 inch Ball
Question:
I recently purchased a new aluminum trailer with a 2inch ball. I would like to change the tongue to a 1and7/8inch ball. The tongue on this trailer has a 4inch hole pattern but I can only find tongues with 3inch holes for mounting. Are 1and7/8inch tongues available with 4inch mounting holes?

That would be harder to find since the couplers with the smaller ball size are typically on much lighter duty trailers. Would it be easier to swap to a different hitch ball? Or if you have another trailer with a 1-7/8 inch ball already maybe a dual ball setup like the # 3371803210?
