Extend CDN M101 front tongue rails????

Roberto · 04-09-08, 08:50 PM

Has anyone extended their front tongue rails on their CDN M101 trailer and if so, how much extension and pics if you have. Want to keep my pintle assembly but would like to extend for ease of backing and jackknifing and such, not sure how easy would be to do?

Thanks
Rob

M100, pretty much the same thing.

Looks good, I figured I would have to alter the front a little as it narrows where the pintle joins it. I think I will extend 12" and leave it at that.

It just takes some practice with those short tongues...I had the same issue with my M101 CDN at first. I would recommend keeping it stock...
