Options for a Roller Style Guide-On for a Pontoon Boat
Question:
I purchase 2 sets of these and was able to put 3 on. The 4th one could not be installed because of the brace holding the center pontoon rails. see picture. I was wondering if there is a product that is straight up and down I could mount the roller on in this case. Looking at the picture its the right side.

Though we do not have an option that would have a perfect 90 degree angle, I may still have something that would work.
The CE Smith # CE27610 is a little smaller and typically installed on the outside of a trailer frame, but can be used however needed. Where the # CE27672 you have installed are coming from the center of the trailer frame facing out, this would install towards the edge of the frame, for the lack of a better term, and point inwards.
The problem is the U-Bolts that are holding the bunk boards on. They look to be pretty close to where these would need to be mounted to actually provide guidance for the pontoon boat when putting it on the trailer. The # CE27610 can be cut down to fit, of course, but I would definitely follow the measure twice cut once rule before committing.
The U-Bolt bracket will measure 4.63 inches long x 3.85 inches wide. The horizontal portion of the upright is 17 1/2 inches long and the vertical portion will measure 22 1/2 inches to the top of the rubber roller. This also has a 105 degree angle with the way you would need to mount it
