axle

We had an issue on my last (attempted) trip that has ballooned into a major fiasco. Here is the story. Would appreciate any help from FR techs and experts on what to do next. First a bit of background: A little over a year ago we bought a 2020 EVO 2460 last year from a private individual...

We have a 2020 Rockwood Mini Lite dual axle 2511S. Can I damage the axles by using a ramp type leveling system? Raising both wheels (on one side) with drive on ramps. 2-4 inches depending on the camp site. How about using a product such as Trailer Aid (see attachment) to change a tire rather...

Hey everyone, I have a possible purchase coming up, the seller says it's a '13 but based on the shape it's actually a '12 17RR. I've seen that a lot of people had axle issues, how do I find out if it's been upgraded, or if it has issues? Many thanks, and hello!

Hi all, Last week I finished a NC to TX drive across in my 2022 FR Salem FSX Platinum 170SSX(Single Axle). This would bring the RV total mileage to about 2500 miles. At every stop for gas as we all do I checked things out and I noticed the passenger side trailer wheel hub was strangely warm...

So we have this 2020 EVO2460 that we bought about 1-1/2 yr ago. It was very lightly used and aside from some workmanship issues, we have been quite pleased until this last attempted trip. About 200 mi into the trip we noted that rear passenger side wheel top was leaning in quit a bit after a...

Hi everyone I am new here and I will get around to introducing myself. However, I am embattled with time. I need to find out if there is in fact a lift kit or can I flip the axles on my 2022 grey wolf 26dbh? I was told by the sales men that there may be a kit. My family and I are headed back to...

I have a 2022 Rockwood Ultra Lite 2442BS. I’ve had it 3 months now and noticed a grinding noise coming from one of the axles. I made an appointment with the dealer 150 miles away to bring it in to check it out and repair. Today I got a call from Forest River and they told me they have located...

So looking at the owner's manuals off of the forest river website. it has 2 different axles listed dexter & Lippert. I know the River Ranch comes with 8000 lb axles and this is listed on the spec sheets when you look at the brouchers . But it doesn't say what brand and or model #. I posted this...

I have a 2022 19.5. I often travel on dirt roads with the RV. Every time I travel, whether it's dirt roads or freeway roads, I have to spend some time, sometimes a significant amount of time, reinstalling screws, faceplates, etc. My last trip to CO, where I drove ~15 miles on rough...

I have a 30' 2018 Wildwood TT. The gross weight is 6393 lbs and carrying eight is rated at 1327 lbs. I often carry a full tank of fresh water 45 gal. subtracts 340 leaves me with roughly 987 for cargo. Anyone have any experience adding a leaf to the springs to help with load carrying capacity...

Just purchased a 2022 Salem FSX 270RTK- This sucker is really high. I saw on a video that this unit has what was called "Adjustable axle hangers". Where the leaf springs attach there is a bracket with two sets of holes and the video suggested one could adjust the springs and bring the tires...

My trailer as currently at the shop and had a new axle bolted on due to apparent alignment issues. I went to pick it up today and it looked as bad as before and found the shackle links strangely twisted (see below - this is on the newly installed axle). Any idea if this is a concern? I have...

Looking for info on the axles and tires that were standard on the 2020 31IK. Also, how well are they performing? Thanks!

Are there any downsides to the torsion Flex axles? Age of the rubber tubes , I'm not sure how long they've been out to even know of the lifespan performance. Anybody ever have issues? I'm not having any.

I own a 2018 Apex 213rds and have some unusual tire wear on only one tire (flat wear spot forming on one section of tire) leading me to believe I have a bent axle or spindle. Bearings and hub were checked and not the issue also I have OCD about my tire pressures. Im looking into a shop to...

Can someone tell me what the axle manufacturer and model number are and ratings are for a 2021 Apex 290 BHS? I'm looking for the bearing and seal numbers as well.

I've got a 2022 Vibe 26RK and I've put about 3500 miles on it. Today I'm home doing a pre-trip inspection and short story is I discovered that the drivers side rear axle brake had disintegrated with the pieces ripping holes in the underbelly covering. No clue when it happened. Nothing left of...

I've got about 15K miles on my Wildwood FSX 178BHSK. Time for some maintenance. It is a single axle setup. Where can I find information as to what bearing/race parts are needed? The brake part info would be handy as well. Is there any info on the axle itself? Where do I start looking for...

I found the outer edge of the rear tire on the passenger side worn out way faster than others. Last time I checked is 4,000 miles ago and everything was good. The tire pressure is good. Then I found the rear axle is bent a little upward by putting a long level on it, which is very likely causing...

So I've had to have my slide motors replaced under insurance due to 1 inch difference between top and bottom of slide. Granddesign customer service is absolutely worthless. Now we've noticed the left rear tire is worn on inside to the cords. Again customer says not their problem. At least the...

I follow the Airstream forum. They have a new thread about Dexter recalling axles. Some posts mention Airstream trailers having the wheels fall off. Allegedly, all Airstream shipments have been stopped and dealers have been instructed not to deliver new trailers. No word on what the bottom...
