The trailer fixed, like a cat

I hope this fix can hold the damaged trailer hitch arm for a while — the real solution involves a new hitch arm, and some welding, or a different trailer. The short, T-joint tube seems indispensable to this design, so I’ve made two small, perpendicular hacksaw cuts in the tube, top and bottom, just wide enough to thread a hose clamp though; the hose clamp then, well, clamps the T-tube to the hitch arm. The pictures are better than words. Click the images to enlarge them.

The hitch arm fails completely! ►
