How to Order the CE Smith Bunk-Style Guide-Ons without Boards

Question

Question:

My dual axle SeaStar trailer will need bunk guide-ons with sideboards 6 feet long so the uprights dont interfere with the fenders. Your kit offers 5 foot boards. I can purchase 6foot boards and carpeting locally. What is the price for 4 #27609PG uprights and the full hardware kit, omitting the boards? Trailer frame is 3inch x 4inch galvanized.

You could piece together the part # CE27600 without the boards if you wanted to. For that you would need the part # CE27609PG for the uprights, # CE11452-A for the mounting brackets, and finally part # CE10206G for the swivel brackets and you would have everything but the boards and carpeting.

I would like to know if it is possible to to use the CESmith post extensions on my present wood guides? I have a 2018 Shorelander trailer which carries my 16ft Lund fishing boat.
