Recommended Replacement Bunk Brackets for Escort Bunk Trailer
Question:
The picture attached is not mine, but nearly identical to my setup. I have an escort bunk trailer and I need to replace the bunk brackets. THE BUNK BRACKETS ARE NOT ATTACHED TO THE CROSS MEMBERS OF THE TRAILER. They are attached to the main frames square tubing that runs front to back.

I have a solution for you, but we don't have any of the bunk brackets that are exactly the same as the ones you're replacing. Instead, you can use the CE Smith # CE10000G you were looking at to replace the bunk brackets on your current trailer. These are swiveling brackets, so the angle of the bunk boards will be able to be adjusted to match your current setup.
In order to mount these bunk brackets you'll want to use U-Bolts like the CE Smith U-Bolt - Galvanized - 3-13/16" Long x 3-1/16" Wide x 1/2" Diameter - Qty 1 # CE15283GA, but the size you'll need will depend on the dimensions of your trailer frame. I've linked our entire selection of U-Bolts to this answer so that you can select the correct ones for your application. If you need any assistance with this, just let me know what the dimensions you've measured are and I'm happy to recommend the correct part.
