Has anyone added boat guides, additional rollers or made other changes you've found to be useful? (I have an aluminium Trailex)

Thanks,

Nothing fancy. I just rewired the lights with a ground wire and LED lights and added a spare tire to my trailex. Be sure use a counter nut for the spare tire, otherwise the nut will come loose over long trips.

Thanks, Claus, that's good advice.
I was wondering whether anyone out there has added anything to their trailers specifically to make retrieval (or launching) easier -- such as the guide-ons sold by marine suppliers.
