Bow Stop, Bracket, and Shaft Recommendations for a Boat Trailer

Question

Question:

Which bracket do you use to install 2inch x 2inch base Y- style Bow stop? I can not find 2inch wide bow stop brackets anywhere. Is there other hardwares I can use for this type of stop? Thank you.

You will need a bracket that has a 3/8 inch diameter shaft. At this time we do not offer a 3/8 inch diameter shaft. I recommend bow stop # YR7Y44-4 used with bracket # CE31005PG and shaft # CE10700A for your bow stop set up.
