I bought a new trailer and it has no roller brackets on it. I thought this would be an easy find, but apparently not.

I currently have cradles that mount on the roller pins. This lets the cradle pivot which makes loading much easier.

Anyway, I'm looking for something like this, or anything else that would work. Let me know if you know where to get them,

Thanks

I haven't been able to find them at west marine, bass pro, etc.. Not in their stores or online.

They all have the larger, bow roller type brackets.

If you are in a real bind, I could ship you some, but the postage from Canada is probably $25...I've seen them in several stores here.
I have an old set from a Cat trailer, they are kind of rusted,but could be cleaned & painted,(they are not SS) PM me an email address, I'll send you a photo, you can have them free if you pay the shipping.

I've tried to find the catamaran rollers at marine stores, walmart, Bass Pro etc. with no luck. The ones that the power boaters use are available but the type used on our cat trailers aren't.

Looked around online at some trailer sellers but didn't find the roller parts listed, they must have them but might not sell separately.

Etrailer.com has the rollers but I don't see the right brackets.

Kind of the same with Champion Trailers.

Iv'e got friend who sells some really nice double rollers that swivel for loading. Double give you support on the rear then use cradles up front. Front does not need to swivel so you just mount them tot he crossbar
