Axles Replacement Bad Lippert

My 16 Eagle 321 RSTS both axles have to much toe in.Did calculations for Lippert took photos and emailed them.Also ask for price difference to upgrade to 7K axles.Attached is there response be prepared to pay big if your calculations are not accurate! Or when they do the factory inspection they determine axles are OK.And there factory is 2000 mile from our house,

Cant you have your dealer go through all the calculations and let them deal with Lippert to get replacements if they are bad. I myself would not risk spending all that time and money and then Lippert says everything is Ok.

Seems like you're better off going to an alignment shop who does HD trucks and trailers. It will be at a lower cost that dealing with Lippert who will definitely pass the buck. The cost of hauling and your time and hotel etc. will be far above the cost of new 7 or 8 K axles.

That's how it should have been handled in the beginning. I don't know of many companies that will cover the costs before they know it's their defect.

What exactly would the cost be if they disagree with you ? How much risk are you taking?
