Question:
I have a shorlander trailer will this roller work? It does have the same size shaft. What holds it on? Thanks, Rich

Helpful Expert Reply:
The Yates Wobble Roller # YR440R that you referenced should work well for you since it has the same 3/4 inch shaft as your trailer. Wobble rollers are held on with retainer rings like the CE Smith Wobble Roller Retainer Ring # CE10981.
Basically, you put the open end of the retainer ring around the shaft on each end of the roller then use some pliers to clamp it closed so it is tight to the shaft. This allows the roller to roll but stay in position. Basically, the ring has to gently but firmly pinch or clamp the shaft.
