I would use 2x2x1/8 for the main chassis and 2x2x3/16 for the tongue... Maybe I'm overbuilding, but that's where I feel comfortable...
BTW, I have a set of chassis plans from a registered engineer, and he used 2x2x3/16 all over... the difference of course, is those plans are a utility trailer, which doesn't have the benefit of a really strong box sitting on top of it!

The quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten, so build your teardrop with the best materials...
