Hello Brian,
Great question.
The roller that you asked about, the CE Smith Deep V Keel Roller Assembly for Boat Trailers - Galvanized Steel/Black Rubber - 8" # CE10403G the roller itself is 7 5/16".
If you are looking just to replace the roller and do not need the bracket, the Yates Keel Roller for Boat Trailers - Heavy-Duty Rubber - 10" Long - 5/8" Shaft # YR10000 is actually 9 5/16" so it will fit in a 10" bracket. I went out to the warehouse to get the measurement myself, the information on the product page was not adding up which I am now getting updated.
If you needed a new bracket, you will want the CE Smith Panel Bracket for 10" Boat Trailer Rollers - Galvanized Steel # CE10304G.
Is that going to work for your application?
