they make a plate with 2 holes in it for a mounting plate. the bolts go above and below the trailer frame. or you could just drill 2 hole in the trailer.

Some square U bolts are in order, as well as some serious cleaning I see.
It looks like it was sitting on the ground or something for a long time? I'd also dig out that drain plug.

You want the bunks positioned under the stringers if possible, and some weight on the keel rollers as well.

Couldn't ask for a better response, even with pictures, it doesn't get much better than that.
Looks sorta like you just pulled your boat out of a swamp.

drain plug is out.. just wait till you see the picture of it lol.. boat was strapped and froze to the ground for about a week. kind of embarrassing to tell you the truth.. leavin now to get them.. i kinda just threw the brackets on there just so that i can get the boat off the ground. its really light so i figured i would adjust the trailer than start the deck .
