Anchor roller replacement

@Chris-380 did you use the Kingston Anchor ones when you replaced yours before? You said your new ones are wearing already. Also, were the bolts easy to remove? I haven't tackled mine yet, but I am wondering if I need my electric impact gun with me when I change them. I know impact wrenches are not great for installing stainless bolts because of risk of galling/seizing, but maybe for removal is OK?

So this weekend I reinstalled my windlass and replaced the two worn out delrin rollers. The new are slightly narrower but fit nicely. The chain runs much smoother over the rollers now. Turned out great.

After a full season, no issues with this style on mine either, very happy compared to the originals black rubber ones
