Replacement Trailer Bunk Brackets for a Escort Boat Trailer
Updated 06/14/2026 | Published 05/07/2014
Question:
I have an escort trailer and I am looking for brackets. I am unable to find any. Do you have anything that might work. These appear they may work but not sure on the board angle. I have attached a photo of what is on the trailer now.

The CE Smith Bolster and Swivel Bracket Assembly # CE10000G that you referenced would work well to replace the bunk brackets on your boat trailer. You would be able to set the angle for the bunks that you would like with the # CE10000G also. I attached a picture that shows that you can use different angles.

These brackets may not work on these old escort trailers, and I have a 1997 one. These trailers (as seen in the photo) have 1 main beam fwd to aft each side, and the bunk brackets are mounted to those. The replacement brackets mentioned are mounted on cross beams running left to right, not the same thing. If you put these on as designed, the swivel bracket will be facing the WRONG way! It may be possible to use, but the swivel would have to be bolted to the bunk in the fwd/ aft direction (vice across the bunk). This may weaken the strength of the bunk where it is bolted to the swivel. That's my concern with these.
