Can Ark Ezi-Guides Self-Aligning Boat Trailer Loading System Install on Angled Crossmember

Updated 06/28/2021 | Published 06/25/2021

Question:

2 questions about your Ezi-guides. 1 My cross bar a square tube 2.5 inches high, 3.5 inches wide. Thats over your 2.57 inches - will that be a problem? The 2nd question - according to your question/answer this will not work an an angled cross bar. My cross bar angles down at the center of the trailer. Your angledinch cross bar, is that angled to the left/right, up/down or forward/backward?

The slots on the Ark Ezi-Guides Self-Aligning Boat Trailer Loading System # AR64FR are tall enough to fit your trailer frame that is 2.5 inches tall. Now since your crossmember is V-shaped the U-bolt install would not work since this has to have a totally horizontal crossmember. So what you could do is weld these to the rear of the crossmember with the bracket being "flat" like it would normally be installed on a straight crossmember and that would work around that.
