Is there a 6 Inch Long Keel Roller for a 1971 Boat Trailer
Question:
Im looking to replace two keel rollers for my older 71 boat trailer and need one that is 6inch long to fit the bracket and they have been real hard to find! Do you by chance carry any in that size? Or would it be possible to make a 5inch one or this one work in the 6inch bracket?

Expert Reply:
The best option is to use # YR5244-105EC which is 5-1/2 inches long so it will only be off by 1/4 inch on each side on a bracket with a 6 inch span. If you need a compatible shaft and pal nuts use # CE10722A. It has the 5/8 inch diameter shaft required for the roller.
