Should it be done? Your guess is as good as mine. I have no idea what the stress rating is on the welds under the trailer. You're moving from 1 receiver to 2 so the tongue weight is completely different since it's distributed differently.

How to do it? Any competent welder can do that job. Take it to a decent Fab Shop to have 2 receivers welded to the existing cross arm. Anyway, that's how I'd go after it. YMMV
