1999 Caulkins Bunk and Roller Trailer replace rollers?

[Techchief117]

I bought a 1999 Caulkins trailer with bunks and keel rollers the rubber rollers are cracked and falling apart
Who sells replacement rollers with bolts and the little 1 in rollers that cover the bolt ends ?
And how do i remove rusted bolts from the rollers.

Thanks

I know the rollers are 10 inch wide
And it has 1 inch rollers that cover the bolt and nut ends

As for removing the rusted hardware it's just like anything else.... If normal hand tools won't do it you may need to use hammer, chisel, saw, torch, etc.

Is this nut and bolt, push caps hammered on, or rod with pins?

I tried with the regular hand tools and its not budging and i tried the front roller with an impact gun and it snaped off at he head but it will need to be torched or just cut the whole thing out

Its nut and bolt. With funky triangle shaped pins on it that get in the way
Will post picture tomorrw when there is enough light outside

If you're replacing everything just run a sawzall down through the roller and pin, You might have to pry up on the whole thing to keep the shaft from spinning. Mine have caps on a 5/8 inch shaft, you can buy the caps and shaft material where you buy the rollers, cut it to the corrrect length and pop a cap on each end.

My trailer had 3 rollers, two of which never touch the boat. I moved a like new one from the front of the trailer to the rear to replace the well used one there.
