Trailer guide ons

[Jason Burcina]

Hopefully someone can .I have a 2017 Yamaha 242 limited S. The trailer that it sits on the frame rail is 5" tall and I bought some CE Smith trailer guide ons and the square U bolts that came with it aren't long enough. I've had a hell of a time trying to find something that fits and I wasn't sure if maybe someone had the same problem and found a good solution.

CE11416 are 6" u bolts that should work. I use them on our 2018 242 Limited S galvanized trailer. That part number is for one kit. Does both sides.

I got SeaSense 60" and have zero issues.

I'm not sure if Fastenal has locations by you, but they have a lot of odd hard to find hardware.

This is what I plan to get.

Cool. Thank y'all very much. I ordered the ones suggested. Has anyone ran into the problem of the guide ins sticking out to far? I'm looking them over and it looks like the boat flares out from back to front. I'm worried about ripping them off or is it just an optical illusion

They do add a little width to your trailer overall, but they don't "flare out" unless you bend one out - happened when someone loading my boat onto the trailer got blown to one side....slightly bent the guide post (better than the alternatives). I just bent it back by hand.

I do like the covers for them though....and wont use ones without covers.

Opinions on the 60" or 48" guides for an SX190??
