Man, what happened to the simple design of keel rollers and bunks.

Like that old Cherokee...it worked and required little maintenance. So, Chrysler...I mean trailer manufacturers did away with it in favor of other things that didn't hold up as well.

I bought a new roller trailer this year and had the give a mechanic 125 dollars to adjust it cause i had the same problem you are having and the solution is that he brought the rollers very close together i mean there so close there almost touching but the boat centers it self and tyhe winch strap goes on straight so move the rollers together i have a 1978 steplift

Beleive me I did that--on these Cox trailers--I do not think they would work on any boat--I moved the rollers all over--per 3 different people who set up boat trailers. Bunk it!

First I mounted the boards and covered off of rough measurements and then loaded the boat and then had to jack up the boat and move the boards a hair to get everything where they needed to b and the boards bow just right to support the boat fully:nice:, and walah--perfect and would never go back.

i really like this set up looks nice and simple but i think i would like some keel rollers or is it fine that way
