Screwed up my trailer...Fort Worth repair folks? #8782191 04/03/13 01:39 AM

I was moving my trailer into a warehouse at my office. I was using my forklift, which has a 2" ball that can mount into one of the forks. The darn thing got in a bind when the fork hit the weldment that anchors down the safety chains under the tongue. It tweaked my hitch around the front/ball receptacle. It will need to be removed and a new one welded on. Any ideas on local SE Fort Worth repair facilities? I'm leery of towing it very far in this condition, fearing I have weaked the metal.
Thanks, folks.

Michael, do you mean Texas Mastercraft, the ski boat guys? I'm hoping that's what you meant...I'm friends with the owner, and didn't know they repaired trailers- if that's who you referred! Thanks!
**Edit: called my buddy @ TX Mastercraft and it's not them. Do you have a number for the folks you mentioned? Can't find it on Google...Thanks.

You could probabaly buy the hitch part you need replaced and call a welder to cut the old off and weld a new one on. Then repaint it. They would come to you, if you can't pull it.
