I was wondering if anyone knows if you can change a roller trailer(shorelander to a bunk) I have a shorelander tandem axle that hauls a 2025 Pro_v. I priced a new eagle bunk trailer and I about passed out. Just curious if there is a cheaper way to solve my problem or if I should just suffer...........any help would be greatly appreciated.

Yes and no.
You can always remove the rollers and replace them with bunks.
The problem is that many trailers - that are full rollers have rocking supports - that work well with the double sets of rocking rollers.

I suppose that the fix for this would be a double set of bunks to replace the double sets of rollers.

I think that if you check around, there are some nice bunk trailers that are no more expensive than a roller trailer.

Take care

On almost all ShoreLand'rs, you can take off the entire roller assemblies and replace with entire bunk assemblies. Same frame..it all bolts up.
Have done it.

I had a dealer convert my ShoreLandr trailer from rollers to bunks last summer. I think they got a kit from ShoreLandr. Glad I did it.
