FINAL ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Remove all banded items from the frame and sort hardware by size.
Springs: Install one of the spring bushings Item #96 in the rear of one of the spring brackets and secure it in place with a 9/16” x 3-1/4” hex bolt and 9/16” flange lock nut. Hook the hook end of the spring around this bushing and then swing the front up into the spring bracket. Align the eye of the spring with the hole provided in the spring bracket and secure in place with another 9/16” x 3-1/4” hex bolt and 9/16” flange lock nut. Tighten. Repeat on the other spring.
Axle:
Position the axle under the springs just installed. Align the pin on the bottom center of the spring with the hole provided in the spring pad welded to the top of the axle. Place a spring clamp Item #97 on the topside of the spring. Drop two 1/2” x 2-5/16” x 6-1/2” U-bolts down over the spring clamp, spring and then the axle. Place on a spring and axle U-bolt plate (Item #99) and secure in place with 1/2” flange lock nuts.
Repeat on the other spring. Tighten all nuts on the U-bolts just installed.
Tire and Wheel Assemblies:
Mount the tire and wheel assemblies using the 1/2” fine threaded tapered lug nuts provided. Tighten to 85-95 ft/lb. of torque using the rotation pattern as shown in the Shore- Landr’s Owners Manual. Re-torque the lug nuts after 50 miles of driving and then periodically thereafter.
Winch Posts: Locate one of the winch posts weldments Item #12. Place it onto the winch post weldment mounting section of the frame as shown. Note that there is a series of hole positions that the winch post can be mounted in. Select the one that will best adapt to your PWC and secure the winch post weldment to the frame using (2) 3/8” x 3-3/4” hex bolts and flange lock nuts. Repeat this process on the remaining winch post weld­ment. Do not tighten at this time because they will have to be adjusted to the PWC’s once they are placed on the trailer.
Walk Board: Locate the front walkboard mounting bracket. (Item #3) Place it on the front of the frame and align the holes in the bracket with the holes provided in the frame. Mount the front walkboard bracket to the front of the frame by placing two (2) 3/8” x 5” carriage bolts in the holes pro­vided from the top side down through the frame. Secure with 3/8” lock washers and hex nuts.
Mount one of the back walk board plates to the middle cross member by placing 3/8” x 3-1/2” carriage bolts from the top side down through the plate and cross member.
Place the walkboard down the centerline of the trailer on top of the walk board mounting brackets just installed. Ce n t e r on t h e b r a c k e t s si d e w a y s a n d l e n g t h ­wise. Attac h the walk boa rd to the brack ets by plac­ing No. 10 x 1-1/2” Phillips-head screws in the holes provided in the mounting brackets from the bottom side up into the carpeted walkboard. Thread in the screws until tight.
Bunks: Front Crossmember Outside PWC bunk brackets on each side of the trailer:
Slide a 3/8” x 3-7/16” x 3” square U-bolt (Item #31) over the front crossmember so the threaded end of the U-bolt is point­ing forward. Position the PWC bunk bracket on the front side of the cross member so that the dog leg end of the bracket is pointing outward. Align two holes in the PWC bunk bracket with the legs of the U-bolt, then insert U-bolt through the holes in the PWC bunk bracket and secure with 3/8” flange lock nuts. Repeat this process on the other outside PWC bunk bracket on the front crossmember.
Inside PWC bunk brackets on each side of the trailer: Repeat the above process except point the dog-leg of the PWC bunk brackets toward the center of the trailer.
Rear Crossmember Outside PWC bunk brackets on each side of the trailer:
Slide a 3/8” x 3-7/16” x 3” square U-bolt (Item #31) over the rear crossmember so the threaded end of the U-bolt is pointing rearward. Position the PWC bunk bracket on the rear side of the crossmember so that the dog leg end of the PWC bunk bracket is pointing outward. Align two holes in the PWC bunk bracket with the legs of the U-bolt, then insert U­bolt through the holes and secure with 3/8” flange lock nuts. Repeat this process on the other PWC bunk bracket on the rear crossmember.
Inside PWC bunk brackets on each side of the trailer:
Repeat the above process except point the dog-leg of the PWC bunk brackets toward the center of the trailer.
Lo c ate the bu n k assem b l ies. Not e that one en d of the bunks have a tie down bracket fastened to it. Po­si t ion the bu nk abov e the PWC bu nk brac k ets jus t installed so that the tie down bracket is to the rear of the trailer. Align the holes in the bunk brackets (Item #98) with a hole in the PWC bunk brackets. Note that the PWC bunk bracket must be on the correct side of the leg of the bunk bracket attached to the bunk so that the metal of both brackets will hinge bind themselves when the bunks are pivoted. This will keep the bunks from pivoting too far when the machines are removed from the trailer. Attach the two together using 3/8” x 1” hex bolt and 3/8” flange lock nuts. Tighten but do not over tighten. The bunks must be allowed to pivot so they can conform to the PWC boat bottom when it is placed on the trailer. Repeat this process on the other bunks.
Secure with a 3/8” flange lock nut. Tighten. Repeat this pro­cess on the rear crossmember.

Final Adjustment:
Place the PWC’s on the trailer so the rear of the machines are positioned at the rear of the bunks. Check the bunk positioning for clearance with the strakes. Loosen the U-bolts securing the PWC bunk brackets to the crossmembers and slide the bunks either in or out so that they are located just to the outside of matching strakes. This will not only help with loading but will also give you proper support for your machine. Re-tighten the bunks when in the proper location. Repeat on the other machine.
Note the PWC bunk brackets also have multiple holes for raising or lowering the position that the machine sets on the trailer with respect to the frame and fenders. It may require a change in the height adjustment to clear the fenders on certain machines.
Winch Post Weldments: Once the machines are properly positioned on the bunks the winch post weldments can now be adjusted.
Remove the two 3/8” x 3-3/4” hex bolts installed earlier to hold the winch post weldment to the frame. Slide the winch posts weldment either forward of backward so it corresponds with the front of the machine. Rotate the winch post weldment so that the bow stop roller is positioned just above the bow eye of the machine. Attach the winch strap, route under the bow stop roller, then to the bow eye and tighten the winch strap slightly to help hold the winch post weldment in posi­tion. Locate and align the mounting holes in the winch post weldment with the holes in the frame member. Re-install the 3/8” x 3-3/4” hex bolts in the new location. Secure with the 3/8” lock nuts removed. Tighten in position.
Pull the machine into the winch post weldment bow eye roller and check to make sure the positioning is correct. The bow eye roller must be positioned just above the bow eye to properly stop the machines in the event of a sudden stop. The winch strap must run under the bow eye roller when it is attached to the bow eye.
Repeat the above process on the other machine.
Tongue Weight:
Check the trailer for proper tongue weight. Best towing is achieved when the tongue weight is 5-7% of the total gross load of the complete unit.
Axle Adjustment:
The amount of tongue weight on you r trailer can be adjusted as follows:
To lower the tongue weight, adjust the axle assembly fo r w a rd, to incre a s e th e tongue weig h t , adjust the axle assembly backward.
The distance that the axle assembly has to be moved will vary because it is directly related to the weight and center of gravity of the machines placed on it.
Re-check all nuts and bolts for tightness to make sure that none have been missed during assembly. Unit is now ready to be towed.
