Question:
I have an older boat trailer that I used for a flat bottom aluminum boat for years. The trailer worked fine for this. Traded for modified vee aluminum hull and it has a 1inch rib down the middle that strikes the front trailer crossmember slightly before the front bunk pads. Crossmember is 2 1/2inch C- channel and I want to put an 8inch deep vee keel roller where the boat hits the crossmember to help guide boat onto front bunks. Do you have a bracket compatible with this size channel, say 3inch or 3 1/2, or are they all a standard size?

Expert Reply:
Sounds like you are looking for the part # CE10403G. The slotted mounting holes would allow it to be mounted at various heights to match what your trailer needs. The slots of the bracket are 6 inches apart as well.
I attached a review video for the roller for you to check out as well.
