Expert Reply:
You can use the 5 foot long Dutton-Lainson deluxe roller bunk # DL21741 on your 8 foot bunk, and you would just locate it in the middle of the bunk.
I also offer the Dutton-Lainson roller bunk, part # DL21740. This is a 4 foot long roller bunk, so you could install 2 per bunk.
You will also want to make sure that the roller bunks will be able to handle the weight capacity of your 18 foot boat.
To install the roller bunks to your trailer, you may also be interested in the Dutton-Lainson roller bunk bracket, part # DL21742. These brackets will have to be installed at the correct angle for your boat hull as they are stationery.

Hello, is the price listed for the set of 2 4 or 5 rollet bunks?What is the height difference after loading boat on roller bunks are installed?Does your rollers use a bushing and if so what type? Do they require lube and how long of service life should be expected?Curious about distance allowed in front of bunk rollers for just using the bow sinching roller when winch up for trailering. Is there enough support for a 16 boat without installing another keel roller?Thanks for feedback.George H.
