Bracket Recommendation for Installing Carpet Bunks on a Boat Trailer
Question:
I just watched your Video of CE Smith Carpeted Bunk Boards for Boat Trailers - 6foot Long - 1 Pair, and would like to know about suggested mounting brackets and hardware including nuts/bolts and do you have an installation video. I have never done anything like this and how do you get the boat off the trailer? I have a 14 ft aluminum boat. Thanks.

For the carpeted bunks part # CE27840 that are in the review video that I attached the easiest way to install them would be to use the swivel brackets part # CE10000G-4 which I attached a review video of as well. I also attached a picture that shows the bunk and the bracket attached to a trailer frame.
For a set of 4 u-bolts to attach the brackets you would want the part # CE15283GA-4.
