I only had my Horizon 240 about a month before I couldn't stand the double roller setup anymore, so Here was my solution:
I designed a shape, and had two plates waterjet from 1/4" SST plate. These keep the upper roller in it's original position, and eliminate the lower roller. One bolt goes through the original pivot point, and I drilled a hole in each side of the winch mounting channel for the other bolt. No problems since then. I can power on until the bow-eye hits the bottom of the roller, or winch the last bit.
I put on new 4" urethane roller with end-bells, but the Stultz Rollers that FWFord's used look like better quality.
