In 2017 I noticed that the tires on the rear axle of my trailer looked splayed out. Took the trailer to the local frame shop and was told the camber was way out of spec. I paid them to bend the axles and then bought new tires for our upcoming trips. Took a couple of short trips and thought all was good. Upon arriving at Sequoia NP, approximately 1050 miles, I noticed that the rear tires were wearing unevenly on the inside, basically the same problem I thought had been fixed. By the time I reached northern Idaho I was forced to stop and have the trailer repaired by installing both new axles, leaf springs, shackles, bushings and new tires. The trailer towed like a dream on the way home and the uneven tire wear seemed to disappear. Did about 4000 miles in 2018 and all seemed fine. This year did about 2000 miles early and could see a bit of uneven wear on the left rear tire. Now I see that the left rear camber is out of adjustment again and I am back to the same issue, looks like the camber is off. This trailer weighs 4400# empty with a 1600# cargo capacity for a total of 6000# gross. I have weighed the trailer a couple of times and am certain that I have never exceeded the gross weight rating. Tow speed is 60-65mph and have never "curbed" a tire. What the heck is going on? I use a Curt 10K WDH with 1K Bars and really like the set up. Trying to figure out if I am doing something wrong. Hope the knowledge here can help me.
