Straight Tongue Coupler

I am hoping someone knows where I can get a replacement coupler for my camper. This summer, after many years constant trouble with the surge brakes, I finally replaced them with electric. Wow! Why didn't I do this years ago!! The trailer tracks better, it stops so much better without jumping, squealing or overheating the hubs. The last bit I need to replace is the coupler. I removed the surge components and tightened it down but it still moves up and down when I brake since it is two pieces. Anyone know where I can get a 3.5" wide straight tongue coupler? They all seem to be 2.5" or 3" and I'd like it to be the same width as the original so I don't have to shim. Thanks.

I have looked on etrailer.com. I do not see any tongues 3.5" wide. Do they even make them?

Why not just get it welded together.
