Bent axles, alignment issues which will cause abnormal tire wear.

Yikes! Well I’m glad that I took pictures of it jacked up. Hopefully I won’t have issues. Thanks again ‘66’.

They look to be supported very near the spring hangers on all 4 points. I wouldn't lose any sleep over it.

X2, If they jacked right next to or on the spring hangers your fine. It’s when people use their jacks further in from there that issues occur.

Thanks guys,

Here’s a better pic of the lift points used. I feel comfortable enough to get back to my beer!

...not to be nit-picking, but the hub on the right is missing the rubber cover over the grease zerk fitting. Hopefully, you’ll be OK, but still isn’t recommended with the axles they use today. Amazon has the rubber covers....

Not nit-picking at all 66, I greatly appreciate your catch here!

I had the Endurances mounted a couple weeks ago. The Marathons that came with the TT actually hade a date stamp a year older than the TT. I think they were on borrowed time! Went up one rating to a D, and no more wondering if one would blow up. I just have to remember to keep these inflated to 65 psi, instead of 50.

I was getting ready to make an hour long trip to Tractor Pull to purchase these as well. Thanks for the link as it saved me time also!
