Prop Gaurd Rollers

I'm about to move into a new home and the garage driveway is steep enough that I can't get my trailer up it without tearing into the concrete pretty bad. I called the manufacturer and they want to hold the boat for 5 weeks and I'm not willing to do that. I have seen rollers for a DHM trailer, but I don't know if they would work on my trailer. Anybody have any ideas on prop guard rollers for a Sport Boat trailer?

I have a steep driveway. Here is a shot of the boat with the prop guard rollers pulling out of my driveway. I back the boat up when I put it away. I had these custom made on a Pacific trailer. They work very well.

I currently have a DHM trailer with the prop guard wheels, but have taken previous trailers I've owned and had them add the wheels to those. They can add them to about any trailer.

Thanks Tom. I guess it's worth a shot. They are a sort of expensive, but if it works I'll be happy.

I just took my trailer to a local trailer shop and they welded the wheels on for me.

Did it for my buddies DHM trailer too. Get the plastic / urathane wheels, not the metal ones.

Works great.

If you hit DHM trailers website they sell a complete prop guard wheel kit. Buy it and have your favorite welder put the kit in place on your trailer and you're good to go.
