I couldnt find exactly what I was looking for when searching through the forum, but I am guessing I am not the first person with this issue of their roller looking crushed.
We tried to replace our stock roller on our trailer for our 2015 AR210 last season with a Stoltz roller, but the bolt we received was damaged and then the nut was locked on and it was a entire ordeal. The vendor (JBP) took great care of us and shipped us out a new bolt/nut right away, but my wife was pretty frustrated with the entire experience and didnt want to waste any more time on it last season when we could have been in the water instead.
So this season we finally got around to putting the new one on, but rushed through it and didnt put the washers on the outside...... I know, dumb mistake.... Going to put a new bolt/washer on and re-do it correctly and not rushed once and for all, but my main concern is that it seems like the roller is getting crushed and I dont think that is tied to the washers. The stock roller was absolutely dismantled as well. Any thoughts on why this is happening or what I am doing incorrectly? We are first time boat owners as of last year, so maybe I am putting it on the trailer wrong or something? Usually I have just the top part of the front fenders out of the water and I winch the boat all the way up until the bow eye is snug on the bow roller. I kinda give it all I can to get it snug on there, but even so by the time I get home it loosens up for another 2 knotches worth of a crank.
