ONE AXLE BRAKE INSTALLATION
Cut the tape securing the brake line hose to the axle.
Remove the brass plug from the port in the brass block on
the right brake caliper. Thread in the brake hose male end
and tighten. Place the other end of the hose up through the
hole provided in the brake line clip bracket. Secure in place
with the hose clip provided. (Item # 29, Page 6)
Remove the plastic cap from the end of the frame brake line
coming out of the black plastic tube in the side frame by the
axle. Carefully uncoil the brake line so that it will reach the
end of the hose just attached to the brake line clip bracket.
Thread the brake line fitting into the brake line hose. Tighten.
All bleeding to the line can be done through the bleeder on
the right caliper.
DUAL AXLE BRAKE INSTALLATION
If your trailer is equipped with dual axle brakes connect the
line to the axle as follows:
Cut the tape securing the brake line hose to the axle.
Remove the brass plug from the port in the brass block on the
right brake caliper. Thread the brake hose male end into the
block and tighten. Attach the brake hoses from the axles to
the spring bracket with the brake line clip brackets as shown
in Detail Q. Once the brake hoses are secured in place with
the hose clips (Ref. No. 31) the lines can be attached.
Identify which brake line hose that the side frame brake line
tubing will be connected to. In a dual axle installation it can
connected to either one. When identified, locate the brass tee
connector. Screw the male port of the tee into the brake line
hose. Tighten. Next connect the side frame brake line into
the top port on the tee. Connect the two axle together using
the 40” brake line supplied. Thread one end of the line into
the brass tee just installed. Route the line over to the other
axle, form a loop in the line and then connect the other end
into the brake line hose for the second axle.
Fill the actuator reservoir with brake fluid and bleed the line
per the instructions in the brake manual. Note that the axle is
already bled at the factory during assembly. All bleeding to the
line can be done through the bleeder on the right caliper.
Tire And Wheel Assemblies
Mount the tire and wheel assemblies using the 1/2” fine
threaded tapered lug nuts provided. Tighten to 80-90 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.

B-SERIES BUNK ASSEMBLY
Locate the two 2 x 6 bunk assemblies. Note that the bunk
mounting brackets are assembled at the factory. Place the
end with the two brackets towards the rear of the trailer.
Place the assembly on the equiload bunk arm and secure by
placing a 3/8” x 1” hex bolt through the bracket on the bunk
and the ear on each end of the equiload arm. Secure in place
using a 3/8” lock nut. Repeat on the other end of the arm.
(See Detail H.)
The front bracket is not attached to the bunk because the
trailer can be adjusted to two different lengths. Once the
proper position for the rear cross member is determined, the
front of the bunk can now be attached to the bracket using
two- No. 10 x 1-1/4” self tapping screws as shown in Detail
G.
The 3/8” bolts can be tightened but not over tightened because
the bunks should be allowed to rotate slightly to conform to
the boat’s bottom.
WINCH POST ASSEMBLY
(See Detail J). The height that the bow eye is placed in your
boat will determine the length winch post required. Once
this is determined, attach the winch base to the tongue
with three 1/2” x 4-1/2” hex bolts and lock nuts.
Align the holes in the Profile 2000 mounting channel with
the holes in the top of the winch base. Attach the front of the
winch head mounting channel to the base by placing a 1/2”
x 4-1/2” hex bolt through the hole closest to the front of the
winch base. Secure with a lock nut. Do not tighten.
Note that the winch head can now be rotated either up or
down. Identify the correct hole combination to use to position
the bow eye roller just above the bow eye of your boat. When
determined, secure in this position by placing the bushing
as shown in Detail J inside the winch base so it aligns with
the hole just identified for the proper adjustment. Insert an-
other 1/2” x 4-1/2” hex bolt through the determined mounting
hole in the mounting channel and winch base making sure
the bolt passes through the bushing as well. Secure with a
1/2” lock nut. Tighten all bolts.
R SERIES
The R-series roller rack is installed by placing the roller arm
assembly mounting channel over the rear cross member and
securing in place with a 1/2” x 4-1/4” hex bolt and lock nut. (See
Detail M). Note that it should be left loose until the boat is placed
on the trailer. Once the proper positions is determined, it may be
tightened. Repeat on the other roller arm assembly.
The short stabilizer bunk is installed to the adjustable bunk
bracket on the front cross member with a 3/8” x 1” hex bolt
and lock nut. (See Detail K).
RB SERIES
The RB-series bunks are installed by placing the RB arm
assembly mounting channel over the rear cross member and
securing in place with a 1/2” x 4-1/4” hex bolt and lock nut. (See
Detail P). Note that it should be left loose until the boat is placed
on the trailer. Once the proper position is determined, it may
be tightened. Repeat on the other RB arm assembly.
The short stabilizer bunk is installed to the adjustable bunk bracket
on the front cross member with a 3/8” x 1” hex bolt and lock nut. (See
Detail N).
