Will the Retractable Tongue Kit Work On a Malone EcoLight Trailer

Helpful Expert Reply:

The Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit part # FHDPB230101 is what I recommend for a Malone EcoLight Trailer part # MAL53FR. The Retractable Tongue Kit for Malone MicroSport Trailers part # MPG494 will fit on the tongue but the MicroSport has a one piece tongue and the EcoLight has a two piece tongue so the connection point between the two tongue pieces on the EcoLight could create issues.

The Fulton Fold-Away Coupler Hinge Kit could be installed on the tongue of the Malone EcoLight in place of the union plate that joins the two pieces of the tongue together. I spoke with Malone and they said this was perfectly fine and would avoid cutting into the frame.
