Full product description
Designed for maximum adaptability, this Trailer Tongue Vertical Channel Adapter is the ultimate solution for converting a standard horizontal A-frame into a height-adjustable vertical system.
This 50° a-frame vertical channel is engineered to fit 4", 5", 6", 7" or 8" aluminum frames, the heavy-duty steel construction provides a professional-grade foundation for custom builds or structural modifications.
Featuring a 12" tall channel with a standard 2" on-center bolt pattern and six adjustment holes for bolt-on trailer couplers, this unit provides the necessary flexibility to level your trailer across various towing applications, ensuring a safer and more stable haul.
For the DIY or custom fabricator, our raw component kit provides a "blank canvas" of individual parts, allowing you to weld the assembly to your trailer's exact specifications. Precision remains at the heart of this adapter's design, allowing for custom drilling on the sides and top to ensure a seamless fit for your specific frame dimensions.
Whether you are a trailer manufacturer or an owner seeking more versatility, this mount is built to handle heavy-duty tasks with ease. Keep in mind that your total towing capacity is always limited by the lowest-rated component in your assembly; therefore, professional installation and high-quality hardware are essential for a safe, high-performance setup.
