I have a 1891 warrior and been thinking of getting a set, has anyone used them before? Thanks in advance.

I'm thinking of doing the same. Very much interested in opinions from users. Thanks.

I installed a set on my trailer a couple of years ago but removed them after they showed signs of a powdery film that was coming of my hull (Glass). I can't remember the brand but I purshased them through Cabella's and they refunded my money when I returned them. The bunks didn't show any sign of this problem, either before or after the slides. Now I just spray them with non-petroleum based silicon and get the same results. Good luck...SkeeterBoy

I have a set on my Shorelander bunk with a 1650 Lund Angler. I love them. You have to make sure that when you haul your boat down the road you have it secured on the transom,because with the teflon strips on it is real slick, and it will slide side to side. Whed you are at the ramp when you release your crank handle it will fly down the trailer if you are on any kind of incline. Hope this helps you out. Eric

I have them on the bunk trailer of my jon boat. While they certainly do the job with ease of launching/retrieving, I have noticed that they have lightly scratched the bottom paint on the jon boat. For this boat, that doesn't bother me, but if it was the gel coat of my glass boat?
