I needed to replace two center bunks on my 1998 Tracker trailer. The boat is a light, aluminum 1997 Tracker Pro Team 165. I bought two treated 2x4s and carpeted them beautifully. The problem is, I now noticed that the current bunks are bolted from above with a lock nut on the bottom. I cannot counter sink anything at this point because my carpet is already in place. So, my question to the group: what is my best option for bolting or screwing from below up into the 2x4? I realize that this is not the ideal option because it won't involve a bolt and thus have greater chances of coming loose. My plan will be to check this each trip. I need the biggest baddest thing that will hold these boards from below. I welcome your suggestions. Thanks, guys!
