Will the Fulton Boat Guide # FGB1500100 Fit a TrailStar Boat Trailer

Question:

I have a 2010 BassTracker Pro Team 175 TXW which came with a TrailStar Trailer with Boat guides as part of the trailer. These guides are low and almost back of the boat and cannot be seen when trailering the boat or backing the trailer into the water. The problem is the Guides cant be seen and they work but not as guides until the boat is almost perfectly trailered. I want to attach your guides but the problem is TrailStar has welded as part of the trailer about a 12 to 13 inch wide galvanized step located behind the wheels and extending to the back of the trailer and the only way to attach your Boat Guide is to attach at the cross member under frame which is 3in tall by 1 1/2 in wide. My question is can the clamp be attached in this manner?

The mounting bracket that comes with the Fulton boat guides # FGB1500100 can be turned to fit the mounting needs of your trailer. While it may take some creative maneuvering I am confident it will work. You also may be able to attach the guides to the galvanized step area by drilling through it and attaching the brackets that way.

I have also included a link to all of the boat guide options we carry. There may be a better option based on your trailer design.
