FINAL ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
Remove all banded items from the frame and sort hardware
by size.
SPRINGS
Position the axle so it is properly aligned with the trailer. Place
the springs on the top side of the spring pads welded to the
axle. (See chassis diagram). Note that the hook end of the
spring must be mounted to the rear of the trailer. Place a
spring clamp on the top center of the spring as shown. Next
place the 1/2” x 6-1/2” U-bolts down over the top of the spring
clamp, spring and axle as shown.
Place the spring and axle U-bolt plate onto the ends of the
two U-bolts just placed. Secure in place with 1/2” lock nuts.
Thread onto the U-bolts but do not tighten securely until the
complete unit is in position on the trailer. Repeat on the other
spring.
AXLE
Place one of the spring bracket bushings into the rear of the
spring bracket and secure with a 9/16” x 3 1/4” hex bolt and
hex lock nut. Repeat in other spring bracket.
Position the axle under the frame, then hook the hook loop
of the spring around the bushings just installed. Note that if
the axle is positioned too low when trying to hook, the hooks
will not hook around the bushings.
Raise the front of the springs up so they align with the front
hole of the spring bracket. Secure in place with 9/16” x 3-1/4”
hex bolts and lock nuts.
Tighten all axle U-bolts and spring bolts not tightened at this
time.
TIRE & WHEEL ASSEMBLY
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
The winch posts can be mounted as far forward on the mount-
ing channels as possible until the PWC’s are placed on the
trailer. Attach by placing the 3/8” bolts through the holes in the
bottom of the winch posts and the mounting channels.
Place the winch handles onto the winch drive shafts and se-
cure using the 1/2 “ nuts provided. All other adjustments will
be done after the PWC’s are positioned on the trailer.
OPTIONAL JACK & MOUNTING HARDWARE (Page 5)
1. Place wave spring washer on mounting bracket hard-
ware.
2. Place mounting bracket and spring washer on outside of
jack mount.
3. Position the formed outer washer inside the jack mount
and the formed inner washer on the outside of the mount-
ing bracket hardware. Secure with a coarse ½” hex bolt
threaded from the outside to a ½” hex lock nut outside of
the outer formed washer.
4. Insert the top two (2) 3/8” x 4” hex bolts into the mounting
bracket hardware continuing through the mounting straps.
Using the 3/8” lock washers and 3/8” hex nuts, secure the
mounting straps on the hex bolts by only a few threads.
5. Place the jack and mounting hardware on the tongue. Se-
cure by inserting the remaining two (2) 3/8” x 4” hex bolts
through the bottom part of the mounting bracket hardware
and mounting straps. Secure with remaining hex nuts and
lock washers.
6. Check for clearance for handle swing, trailer light cables
and coupler clearance. Tighten.
WALK BOARD:
Locate the front walk board mounting bracket. (Item #1,
Page 5) 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 walk board 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” car-
riage bolts from the top side down through the walk-
board plate (Item #2, Page 5) and crossmember.
Secure with a 3/8” lock washer and hex nut. Tighten. Repeat
this process on the rear crossmember.
Place the walk board down the centerline of the trailer on top
of the walk board mounting brackets just installed. Center
on the brackets side ways and lengthwise. Attach the walk
board to the brackets by placing No. 14 x 1-1/2” self tapping
screws in the holes provided in the mounting brackets from
the bottom side up into the carpeted walk board. 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 #10, Page 3)
over the front cross member 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” lock
washers and hex nuts. Repeat this process on the other
outside PWC bunk bracket on the front cross member.
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.
