I have a 5000 lb 23ft searay on 24 Yates 343r wobble rollers. Loading the boat on the trailer is exhausting. It takes two people two sets of winching to get the boat on. I also worry I'm going to rip the shackle off the bow of the boat with the force required.
The rollers spin fine with no load. Should I take off each roller and grease? Or just try spraying some lithium grease. Are the rollers shot? There are minor cracks in the rubber, but not too bad. If I remember correctly the rollers do appear flattened with the weight of the boat crushing them. I'll pay more attention to it at the end of the year when I pick the boat up, but hoping for some advice beforehand. Thx
