Default Where to find rollers and carpet

So I have the boat off the trailer for awhile. I have a shorelander trailer with worn out rollers and busted carpet. Where can I locate some new gear?

IMHO, I'd skip the carpet and go with UHMW glides on the bunks (if we're talking about a bunk trailer). They don't wear out.

You can buy carpet kits for bunks and rollers in catalogs like "Overton's" or local stores with a boat section.

I just replaced the carpet on the trailer bunks. I purchased the carpet at bi-mart. It comes in a 3' x 6' roll. I replaced the 2x4 wood as well. OOO was getting off the old rusted and corroded bolts and nuts tough.

Oh boy, I know about those rusty bolts! I replaced my bunk carpet on the side of the lake while the boat sat in the water. I was a Little nervous I'd get half way through and run into a problem and have the boat stuck in the water.

Ummm yeah...I would have been. If you are going to do that, have replacement bolts, nuts, and washer. My bolts broke, (which was actually faster to remove), I replaced with stainless and oiled threads before installing them. I am referring to the bolts that hold the bunk brackets on the trailer.

West marine! Replace all the bolts while you are at it.
