Problem with Axle alignment

HI, We have a 2014 Jayco White Hawk RBOK 27 travel trailer. We seem to have to get our axles aligned every year or the tires will wear out very quickly. Has anyone else have this problem. They axle system seem to be lightly built.

Welcome Aboard!

If your having issues every year, I suspect you have a bent axle or something else is wrong. Is it one tire? One Axle? or all the tires?

The axles are sized just for the GVW and not much more. Have you ran your combo over a cat scale, to confirm your not over loaded?

With that said, what is your approach like when you back it into its between trip home? I back in, and have a sharp turn with a lot of tire scrubbing. I leave a lot of rubber on the street. In the mirrors you can see a lot of wheel twisting. Just wondering if maybe your scrubbing the tread away. I started rotating my tires every one to two years, but we have not been traveling as much as we use to.
