CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons for Boat Trailers - 60" Tall - White - 1 Pair

Quick delivery on the trailer guides, easy installation on my galvanized trailer, although the product fit perfectly, I was not sure if the steel parts were galvanized so I decided to clear coat all the parts. Not a deal breaker looks good. 479446

Overall pleased but had one issue with one guide bar collapsing where it bends, after a reinforcement was added seems to be holding up. Needs to be thicker material in that area.

Fast, Efficient Service. Product exactly as stated. Video to assist in installation. Fair Price. 516957

These boat guides are a great product! They were easy to install and they are made of substantial materials. I expect these boat guides to last a long time. Just as important, the service and delivery were top rate. I recommend these folks if you are interest in the products they sell. 80880

I bought the extended bolt kit for Parker aluminum I-bean trailer bolts barely fit could not use washers that came with and lock nuts could be used 478670

Great product with excellent components. Very straightforward to install. 129930

Still happy with purchase however I did have one time that one of the sideshad worked loose. Not sure why as they were very tight when installed.

My wife and I received our item very quickly. The product is very high quality and we have installed it on our boat. The operation was very simple. Very helpful in launching boat. The guides enable you to ascertain at all times where the vessel is relative to the dock ..... especially necessary on inclined launching ramps which we have here on Lake Erie where we live. Would highly recommend the company and the product. 409189

Very happy with our guides. Helpful every time we launch and recover. No visible signs of wear.

Guide-ons that we needed for our boat lift. Boat lift manufacturer only offered a flimsy set. These are solid and wil hold up to many summers of boating fun. I had to order the extra long u-bolt kit because frame was over 5 inches tall. Make sure you measure your frame--u-bolt kit that comes in the box only fits 4 1/4 inch frame. 219054

The package arrived with the outer box torn in one area but the inner box & items were not damaged. The hardware that came with the guides just didn't fit my trailer, but I was able to use the existing u-bolts that were still in pretty good shape to attach the new guide poles that replaced rusted out, 6 year old OEM guides on my trailer. Installation was easy, about an hour 146567

Good, guides are still on my 7 year old boat

Didn't take long at all to get it shipped. Helpful and quick with response when ask questions as well. I would highly recommend etrailer 199846

Still working great, I love how it makes it south easier docking the boat back up onto trailer. I would highly recommend this product

Running into issues with the install. Unfortunately your customer service tech was not too helpful, courteous but not very helpful. I have a Triton trailer, tandem axle, sidesteps in front & behind wheel fender. Doesn't appear to be a good place for the install unless half way up the boat. Any recommendations on the install? Previous customers with Triton trailers? I don't prefer "cutting" a hole or notch into my fender as the tech recommended. Thanks for your response. 463367

Anthony,Thank you for your review.I have contacted CE smith and the only way to install these guide-ons on your Triton is to drill two holes through the rear step so the mounting bracket can sit on top of the step and the u-bolts will go around the frame. It cant go under the step because it is too wide and the post would be too far from the boat. I hope this helps.

The product after a year it has worked flawlessly. I enclosed some pictures for you. Use them if you would like for promotional purposes or design.

As usual, excellent customer service from etrailer - they represent the best of what made America great. The CE Smith products are made in USA (North Carolina) and are also great values, although I dont understand why they cant galvanize parts after they're cut, drilled, and shaped instead of before (this is termed "pre-galvanizing" and means the part will still rust and corrode where it was cut or drilled). I suspect the bean counters and not the product engineers made that call. After reading the "not appropriate for review" guidelines, I realize that my comments may not pass, but if you dont want to know, dont ask. 342639

Haven't tried these out yet but did get them installed. The PVC tube was extremely hard to get on. I had to beat it with a hammer and piece of wood and the slit didn't line up properly so that was a bummer. No way to take it off it's so tight. It actually cut into the PVC on the 4 corners so it will have to be cut off if ever taken off. That is disappointing. We will see how it works when I go to the lake but I'm assuming it will work as it should. 357915

They work but mine hit a tree branch and bend them down, I can bend them back up but they just seem to move around a lot. Not real solid but I still like them.

Jim L - 03/24/2018

Easy installation, sturdy and very well made. Haven't put them to use yet, but I know they will make a big difference in the ease with which I can return my boat to its trailer. I may purchase the lighting kit if I start fishing at night. 183596

I have relied on these guide-ons to keep my boat aligned to my trailer many times over the past year, especially during windy days. They are well made but I have still managed to bend them a little now and then by exerting more pressure than they were designed for. However, a little friendly persuasion put them back in place without too much effort. Good product. I would not want to be without them.

Chuck W - 04/05/2016

After reading other reviews I wasn't sure about the height...but it turns out 60" was perfect for me. I mounted them below the frame and I have a taller hull than the picture, so mine don't stick up quite that tall. They are super easy to install, and provide great targeting lines for whoever is trailering the boat. I am now rethinking the light kit on top, just because other vehicles on the road have a tendency not to look down at the trailer lights, so they don't see the turn signals as well. I included a picture taken the day they were installed (not great quality). 141149

Good product I should of called service dept and ask some questions since my trailer was made differently and had step plates which are in the way of using brackets as they show here. My fault I did not look closely enough; but I will be able to use them and make them fit my need. I have done business here before at this site and always been happy with my results of my purchases. Good people. 203762

Not able to use they were not made for me. My fault as stated above.

Well made, easy to install, excellent design, works great! 568636

I'm very happy with the Guide-ons. I'm using them on my shop built trailer for a 34' Scarab. Easy to install and appear to be solid. 558771

It came very quite. 556938

Product was just as advertised and arrived quickly. Thanks 556221

I am very pleased. The guides arrived very quickly -like two days -and were easy to install. I have ordered everything for my used trailer including spare tire, trailer hitch receiver and the ball mount. The ball mount gave me an 8in rise which is what I needed for my Toyota Tacoma. Etrailer follows up and does a great job. 602792

I am very happy with the ordering process and the timely delivery of the parts that I ordered. Now, if the weather warms up a bit, I will get them installed. Thank you, Etrailer.com Harry 601742

My experience with etrailer.com was very good. I found the parts that I needed. The price was better than a couple other places that I checked. The ordering process was smooth and helpful. etrailer responded promptly with estimated delivery date. It was actually here a day early. And upon inspection, the order appears to be complete. Now, if I can do my part and get the parts installed as promptly, I will be ready to go fishing! (I foresee no problems). Thanks etrailer 601586

Good design and instructions Like the way I can adjust it to the beam of my sailboat to keep it centered when getting it out of the water 599105

Great product!! Simple and quick installation on my 24 ft cruiser trailer. I would definitely recommend this to others. 508435

I ordered the 60” trailer guide on for my continental pontoon boat trailer. The item came on time and in perfect shape. No damage to the box. All the parts were accounted for and nicely packaged. The instructions were very clear.and easy to understand. The installition went well plus it is very well engineered product and made of quality material. It is much sturdier than i expected. I would this company and this product with my highest reccomendation. I’ll attempt to include a photo at another time. 498791

My trailer guides are a huge help when putting my boat back on the trailer, especially in windy conditions. The quality is great and they are still holding up well after a year of use. Thanks etrailer! 490722

Great Service 477831

This product works great!! Easy to install and with the new LED lights and tall guide posts, it makes the trailer much more visible now! Happy customer! 472572

by: Ronald12/01/2017

the tires and rims fit perfectly and looked great with the new lug nuts the guide-ons really help me to back the boat up as before i could not see where the trailer was. also great help in aligning boat to trailer when taking out of the water Great service 456173

Just as described--easy install & fast delivery. You can depend on etrailer. 451153

They work great. In fact everything I purchase from etrailer has been excellent. Thank You. 411132

I thought I was reviewing these when I wrote the review on the extra long u bolts. See my review there. Love the whole rig. 405472

Excellent design - fit small spaces on frame and different shapes of frame and tie down very sturdy and can be adjustable to wide range of width of boats. Very easy to install and do adjustment. Very strong configuration. The engineer or designer of this item should get a design reward. (I have been a senior mechanical design engineer for 35 years. I give my best review for this item) 400876

Easy to install 397956

by: Steven M.06/18/2017

Attached easily to my box framed trailer for my 21 ft Sea Ray. It makes lining up simple and fluid when it's time to load back onto the trailer. Really boosted my wife's confidence so I could just back the truck up and she can drive up onto the skids. 395665

Easy to install. Makes my life so much easier when I have to load the boat back on the trailer. I love the fact that the metallic frame goes so high under the PVC. It makes it stronger than other models I looked at. 391699

Very quick delivery and easy install. Took about and hour from start to finish. Thanks etrailer. 382955
