Hi All!
I have a 23' Cruiser, 4000 lbs. It's a keel supported trailer with 4 single poles on each corner to support balance. I'm getting rid of the poles and will be using 2x6 bunks mounted to Bunk Bolster brackets.
Before carpeting the bunks. Do I install the bunks to the braces from underneath the bunks, first going thru the brace then into the bunk or drill a sink hole from the top of the bunks and install the bolt all the way thru the 2x6.
If going from the bottom then I'd have to use lag bolts, something that has a screw type of thread on it.
I'd rather go from the top personally. My concern is if something might pierce the hull.
