Are There Adapters for Installing the BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratchet Transom Tie-Downs

Question:

I purchased the 43” bass pro retractable tie down straps 2”for my 175 bass tracker boat with the 60 hp engine.I tried to install them but they will not fit. I will need to refill the tail light holes or find an adapter kit to slide the ratchet itself over. Is there an adapter kite for this problem?

The BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratchet Transom Tie-Downs part # IMF14256 can be installed in a number of different ways whether it's with a pre-installed bracket from the factory, drilling a hole into the frame yourself, or using universal brackets like the Mounting Brackets for BoatBuckle G2 Retractable, Ratcheting Tie-Down Straps part # IMF14254.

Unfortunately, they don't offer trailer specific brackets for these tie-down straps so if you're having issue you can either modify the brackets you have now, use the universal brackets, or change the location.
