axle

Considering a single axle toy hauler (Forest River Wildwood X-Lite, 3,000 lb dry weight) with intent to haul a 4 wheeler (not yet purchased, possibly 500lbs?) but I'm concerned concentrating that much weight behind the single axle will not be a good setup in that kind of trailer, bad for weight...

I just had to have the axles aligned and tires replaced on my 2016 Wildcat Maxx 5th wheel. The tires were showing abnormal outside edge wear and the trailer only had 7k miles on it . I pointed out the wear to Sprads RV in Reno on my first service but the service manager said it was normal. When...

I was going to add this to an existing thread but I guess that thread was more than 6 months old so it wouldn't let me Here's my tale of woe for the list. I took our TT in for warranty service on the slide out and asked them to check the brakes since they seemed to not be doing much braking...

We purchased a used Cherokee 274VFK. I saw on a youtube that you should lub the trailer axles every 1,000 miles. That seems to frequent? What do other do? Thanks

I have a 2018 29ik and was curious about the axle load limit and also the wheel psi rating with the aluminum wheels. Any help is appreciated.

We brought home our Apex 249rbs on the 18th of Nov. I was going to put the MorRyde cre/3000 system on our camper. They make them for 33" or 35" center to center axle spacing. My axles measures 31". Does anyone know why coachmen would do a 31" axle spacing. Does anyone know of another system that...

Ultra steer tag axle operation question Hi all. I recently purchased a new Berkshire 43 a with ultra steer tag axle. I am trying to get a handle on the operation of the tag axle. On the button in the cockpit there seems to be four separate operations. From the top of the switch it says ,"Dump"...

Axle issues We have a 2014 XLR Thunderbolt 395 Amp and like you love our rig but are really upset with the axle and weight misguiding issues. After reading your terrible story of your trip in NH I wanted to share our story and find out how you resolved it. We live in NY and travelled down to...

Anyone towing a single axle trailer? If so, how does it tow and how difficult is it to back up. Any other information good or bad would be appreciated. I am considering a Rockwood mini-lite 1905 or similar trailer. Tow vehicle is a 2016 Nissan Frontier with V-6 and 5-speed auto. Towing capacity...

We've had 3 severe blowouts in 7 months on our 2012 F.R. Rockwood Windjammer, all on the passenger side. Was told by F.R. our unit is NOT included in their recall addressing this problem. The problem is not enough clearance between the tires & RV floor. Would a lift kit work? Could axles be...

I have owned this Salem Cruise-Lite 241 QBXL for over a month and I’m concerned about the braking action. When coming to a stop the brakes grab/release, grab/release several times before coming to a complete stop. I have a Prodigy 2 controller and find it really difficult to adjust it so that...

Due to the terrible squeaking from my suspension I was considering installing LCI's Equa-Flex Cushioned Equalizers and their Never Fail Bushing kit. I crawled under my unit to see what weight axles I had and I noticed my springs are flat.(see pictures) I have less than 3000 miles on my rig (my...

Why would Forest river put only 3500 lb. axle/springs on a 2013 Salem 27RKSS with a dry weight of 6366 lbs.and cargo capacity not to exceed 1316 lbs. for a total of 7682 lbs. I realized this After discovering a broken leaf spring on one set and the other three sets flattened. This seems unsafe...

Need advice. I just purchase an rPod. Less that 200 miles towed. Decided to add grease to bearings (an ezlube type set up) and was surprised to see how much grease had to be added before old started to come back out. I think I might have screwed up though, cause I used Supertech general...

I've searched the archives, and I didn't see an answer to my first question. Question 1: I climbed under the trailer to grease the cable mechanism, and I noticed the front, adjustable mount for my torsion axle seems to have slipped about 1/4" to 3/8". One side is "sagged" slightly more than...

For those using tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) in this forum, TST507 seems be the favorite, but it's 22 wheel capability and price seems way overkill for my itty bitty single axle 19' Clipper. My question is, does a single axle (2 wheel) trailer actually need a TMPS? I can...

Bought my 2016 Evo 220rbs in February of 2017, took it on a couple of weekend trips in the spring to work out the bugs, then spent the month of June traveling to Denali Alaska and back. Wonderful trip, and the trailer performed admirably. Experienced the road construction, frost heaves, etc...

Hello Brand New SS26SI owner here with a question. I have an appointment on Thursday to get a list of items fixed and would like to have them look at axles and tires, they appear to have issues but I don't really know. It appears that the axles are offset and or the tires/rims are having...

This past summer I purchased a used 2011 Surveyor SV-264 from a local dealer. While on the road I noticed the wheels looked funny. I am not familiar with torsion axles but thought it may have been just a result of the independent suspension and uneven ground at the time. Now I have it on level...

Wanted everyone to know about what happened to me so that you can check your camper's axles. We were setting up our camper a couple of weeks ago and I noticed that the left wheels were too close together. When I looked under the camper to see why I noticed that one of the axle brackets were...

Just replaced my tires with the Goodyear Endurance. Rubber on wheels guy said this was the right way to do it. Any issues with this??

All, I'm shopping for a 2507S or (Flagstaff Micro-Lite) 25BDS. I've seen weight stickers for some models online which are virtually the same in terms of options but differ in terms of axle rating. One shows axles rated at 3080# while another trailer of the same model and year has axles rated @...

Has anyone added a third axle to their Cedar Creek 5th wheel? Anyone know if it can even be done? Looking into possibly putting a Hydralift motorcycle lift to the back of a Champagne, would need a 3rd axle I'm sure, but don't know if it could be done with placement of the lippert jack? Just...

Is there any other 2018 Forest River Cherokee 235B or 265B owners out there having issues with the rear trailer tires rubbing on the floors of the RV? I noticed that that upon purchasing the trailer that the drivers side rear tire had put a hole in the belly skirt but just thought they had a...

I own a 2014 Columbus 340rk 5ver and will be replacing my ST with LT tires after 3 years with about 25,000 miles on them.. My question is can I put Jackstands under the axle tubes and remove all four tires?
