I am going to attempt a similar installation here soon...
My problem is not having enough room on my trailer tongue but having two separate battery banks requirements. One on the OFF-ROAD POPUP trailer for camping and another requirement in the bed of my Truck when running Emergency Radio OPS with just the truck by itself. Then I want to combine to the battery when camping to double my capacity. As indicated above the probelm is going to be when you need to re-charge them.
I originally had four BATTERY BOXES lined up on my trailer tongue area which extended out over both ends. I see no reason why you can't do the same thing with your HASH 22H 22'TT. Place some angle strips on top of the trailer tongue and extend out on both sides to mount four GP24 GC2 battery boxes or maybe just one 48-inch side mount lockable tool box from AMAZON like this...
This will mount on top of the trailer tongue and extend out on both sides and look very similar to this install. This lock box will hold four each 6VDC golf cart batteries just fine..
This should fit your Trailer just fine...
Always plan on using the BLUE SEA type BATTERY switches for this type of setup. It is sometimes necessary to isolate your two battery banks and charge one bank at a time...
I have used this brand of battery switches in my working years on many DC systems..
I also use the BLUE SEA PRODUCTS for fuse blocks and terminals blocks where needed... Everything I have in my DC Battery system is terminated into the proper sized ring terminals for the best of connections where needed...
