axle trouble 2011 24fbs
We really like our trailer, but we are having some trouble with the rear axle. We bought the trailer in 2013 as a left over, got a great price on the it.
Our first long trip with it was the spring of 2014, after about 6,000 miles
I noticed that the rear left tire was wearing bad on the inside of the tire. I put the spare tire on and continued on with our trip. I kept an eye on the tire, still
wearing bad on the left rear tire.
When we got back, we took the trailer to Tampa RV. They were great to work with as was both Dexter axle and Jayco. We got a new axle and two new tires (way to go all the way around!). We started out this year hoping our trouble was behind us. Well it was not to be, at about 3,500 miles I noticed that the rear axle was wearing the right inside tire. Same axle, other side tire.
Any thoughts on what's going on? Going back to dealer on Monday to see what they can do. I don't feel that the trailer is over loaded, nor did we
bend the axle hitting pot holes etc. The trip we took this year we were watching everything going into the trailer. Anything heavy went into the trucks bed, not the camper. Ran with empty tanks and babied it on the road.
