Instead of using an extension, I have seen RVers extend the trailer tongue, to the needed length. Recently I was looking at a posted blog where a couple took their TC round trip from Michigan to Alaska, pulling an enclosed cargo trailer with a motorcycle in the trailer. He had the trailer tongue extended and said it all work fine for the trip.

Did the same as you for our recent trip to Alaska. 8000+ miles.
I can totally jack knife this trailer 90 deg and not touch the camper.
We added 1.5 ft. Basically duplicated the tongue on a Uhaul 5x8 single axle trailer except for the bend upward. 3/8" 2x3 tubing.
