• Are Roller Bunks or Keel Rollers Needed on the CE Smith Boat Trailer Part # CE48810
  The CE Smith Boat Trailer part # CE48810 comes with guide ons which help to center your boat during loading and to hold the boat during transport so I don't really recommend adding anything additional in regards to this aspect because of the size of the boat. However, if you will be launching your boat at night or in the early mornings I recommend using the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons with LED Lights part # CE27740 which will provide visual targets. What I do recommend using is a two...

• Why Does Running Light Circuit Get Ran to CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons # CE27740
  If you wired the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons # CE27740 that you referenced to the stop/turn signal of your trailer wiring they would blink with the blinkers and come on with the brake lights. There's no reason you couldn't do that but as their intended purpose they wouldn't be as effective. Normally these are wired to the running light circuit so that when your tow vehicle has their head lights on (at night) the lights come on to help you guide your boat onto the trailer.

• Painting Galvanized Steel Brackets for a Boat Trailer
  First, I would prime and paint the whole bracket if for nothing else but to make sure it is all uniform. Galvanized steel is going to require certain products to be able to paint it and have the paint last. the first thing you will need to do is clean the galvanized parts with water-based cleaner/degreaser to remove any of the oily film on the parts from the galvanization process. Once clean you will need to use a water-based primer. Do not use a petroleum-based primer because the oil...

• What Trailer Wiring Circuit Does the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons # CE27740 Run To
  The brown wire of your trailer wiring would be the one that carries the running light circuit. That would be the correct circuit to use for powering the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons # CE27740. I attached an install video for this product for you to check out as well.

• Can You Paint the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons
  No. In most cases getting paint to stick to the galvanized steel on the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons # CE27740 is not going to be possible because of the layer of zinc that's left after galvanization. I don't recommend painting them as it's most likely going to be an exercise in futility.

• How To Mount The C.E.Smith 40 Lighted Post Guides On A 2x6 inch Trailer Frame
  I reached out to my contact at CE Smith and this is not the first time they have had this issue with 2 inches by 6 inch trailer frames. You will have to go with a more customized fit since the CE Smith Extra-Long U-Bolt Kit for Boat Trailer Guide-Ons - Pre-Galvanized Steel - 6" Tall, # CE11416, were too short. Their engineer recommends getting bolts that are 7/16 inch by 6-1/2 inches or more and using CE Smith Frame Straps - 2-9/16" Hole to Hole Length - Galvanized - Qty 2, # CE20016GA....

• Which CE Smith Post Style LED Guide-Ons To Use
  Which CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons with LED Lights for Boat Trailers you'll want to use depends on the height of your boat when it's sitting on the trailer. We don't have craft specific guides for this so you'll want to measure from where you want to install these on the trailer to the top of where the boat sits on it so that you make sure you get something that you can see well. For smaller bass boats that don't sit very high off the water you're typically going to use the 40" tall #...

• Replacement U-Bolts for CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons with LED Lights for Boat Trailers
  U-bolt kit # CE11416 would be the one that you need. But like you said the u-bolts are slightly longer than the originals. If you need to have the shorter ones then you would need the kit, # CE11452-A. It might not be a bad idea to replace the brackets too. If there was enough damage to require new u-bolts then there could be unseen damage to the brackets as well.

• Dimensions of Steel Tubing in CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons Kit # CE27640
  I took a walk to our warehouse so that I could measure the dimensions of the L-shaped square steel tubes in the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons Kit # CE27640. These square tubes are separate from the 60-inch PVC pipes that are included in the kit. From the middle of the bend to the end of the horizontal tube the measure is 21-inches. We also offer a similar kit with 40-inch PVC pipes, part # CE27620, and a 60-inch kit # CE27760 that includes LED lights that mount on top of the pipes. A 40-inch...

• Compatibility of CE Smith Guide-On Covers on a 40 Inch Post
  I can help you figure out which Guide-On Covers are right for you. Both camouflage covers fit on 2 inch Schedule 40 PVC post-style guide-ons, with or without LED lights, with a maximum outer diameter of post: 2-3/8 inches. It would just depend on how much of your post you would like to cover. I recommend the 36 inch Camo Guide-On Covers # CE27902 for your 40 inch CE Smith Posts # CE27740 instead, because these are designed to be open-ended to allow the LED lights to show. The 48 inch...

They both use the same type of mounting brackets that attach to the boat trailer frame.

The bunk-style guide-ons have 5 foot long bunks that have to be positioned on your...

• Availability of Vertical Posts for Rear Corners of PWC Trailer
  I'd recommend something like the CE Smith Post-Style Guide-Ons, part # CE27620. The posts easily mount to the trailer using the included u-bolts. A lighted post system like # CE27740 is also available. It'd make your jet ski easier to load in low light situations, as well as making your trailer more visible when towing at night.
