I'm considering adding PVC trailer post guides to my boat trailer. The trailer gets lost behind my truck when retrieving boat. My Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design trailer tubing is 2"x4". Any ideas on how I would attach the guide posts to the trailer frame?

I was going to use u-bolts but can't quite figure out how to attach one on Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design the top side of the trailer frame and one on the bottom on each side yes, I need a drawing, sorry.

Starboard is the same stuff cutting Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design boards are made of, plus UV resistance. Thank you InTheBin for all the information about plastic decking and Aluminum-- I did not know that was an issue in Saltwater.

I have bunches of it and was Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design going to use it on my boat project. I can't thank you enough for all this information! It's a great idea, but be careful. I'm a manufacturing engineer and work with plastics all Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design the time. Plastic glides are great, I have used them on all my boats, including my 22' Starcraft Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design aluminum boat. PVC is easy to work, cheap, and strong. But it can be brittle, oxidizes badly Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design in the sun, and is very abrasive.

Watch for cracks, if it breaks the screws you used will Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design damage your hull.

It is still slick, too, and I can still crank the 18 foot boat'motor up with one hand. You are right about the screws, and if I see they are getting close to the hull, I will replace the whole works. I have also heard of people using Diy Pvc Boat Trailer Guides Design PVC fence sections with good results. I almost did that, but it is much thinner and lacks depth to countersink the screws.

I have used composite materials for other things and found them to be full of all kinds of nasty stuff, like metal. It was weird to be cutting a piece of what I thought was plastic and see sparks shooting off the blade.

I bought a good quality boat, so the aluminum should be ok. Everything is welded, so no rivets or screws in the hull. Thanks again.
