axle

Considering replacing the two AL-KO T44 axles on my 2011 Outback 250RS. Parts (brakes, drums, etc.) for these axles are no longer available. I can have the axles custom made to order. 2 Axle manufacturers are near me (Friedl and Dexter) are 1.5 hours from my home. I will go with either...

Has anyone ever flipped the single axle on something like the Keystone/Springdale 1750RD. On some other campers I have had that were dual axle I had the axles flipped for more ground clearance which was pretty common in Upstate NY some time ago.Just curios as I know these things can alter how...

My 2011 Outback 250RS and it has AL-KO axles. They are 10" T44 axles (4400#). AL-KO was sold to Dexter several years ago. Dexter told me the axles were discontinued because there were already similar axles made by Dexter. Similar, but not the same. Parts such as brakes are different. I am...

Cougar half-ton 22RBS Tire began wearing badly so I pulled the axle looking to replace it (Shops don't do alignments anymore). Axles have a tendency to revert back to misalignment. It's the 4400# one. HF-85. SC-68.5. 6x5.5 lugs. A trailer shop suggested I upgrage to the 5200# axle but...

Hi, I read somewhere that new axles come with too little grease and it's best to grease them, even new. I have an ez-lube dexter tortion axle on my new Geo Pro. Trailer was manufactured in April of this year, we bought it in October and put only a few hundred miles on it this year. Should I...

Hi all, In a week I pick up my 2019 407FW. I’ve been looking everywhere to find the distance from the rear axle to the back of the coach (Hoping to compare to my ‘15 Winnebago regarding the upgrade turn onto my road.) - and also would like to find the hitch or exhaust pipe height. I forgot to...

Hello, I have a 2011 Flagstaff Mircolite 23FB. After a 7000 mile road trip this last summer I believe I need to replace my axles. The existing axles are ALKO U19 rated for 2200 lbs. The trailer itself is 3950 lbs dry weight, so I'm very close to the axle capacity. I'd like to upgrade to...

Going to do both axles this winter. Looking at the choices online my head is about to explode. I prefer US made. Dexter seems to be the highest priced. Any brands I may consider or avoid. Without even pulling a wheel my guess is the hub/drum assembly may need replacing also. I will stick with...

Hi folks, The back axle on my 2020 Pinnacle M32 RLTS is bent after taking it on a grueling cross country trip. All in all I think it did pretty good and I'm not sure where exactly it happened - perhaps it happened going over the large curb in front of my house - who knows. In any case I...

Hey Folks, Can anyone tell me what weight rating the axles are in the Alta 2810KIK (2021 model year if that changed). I'm assuming with a GVWR over 9000 lbs they are probably the 5.2k ones - can anyone confirm? Thanks. Sean.

2022 TFQ2413: 4,700 miles, right rear tire down to metal belts, RH fwd tire approximately 1/2 tread left. LH side tires have minimal wear. Dealer found axles "bent" and RH leaf springs flat. We have to pay freight and 1/2 labor, Lippert covering parts and 1/2 labor. I'm concerned it will...

We are changing the tires on our single axle trailer (wolfpup 16fq) ... we have bottle jacks to jack up the trailer ... Not going to jack with the bottle jack on the axle, going to lift with jack on the frame. Can we place two axle jacks on the axles to hold the camper in place while we go to...

Just in case anyone is interested and hesitant to try these updates, I thought I would post my recent changes to the running gear on my 2021 Wolf Pup 16pfbl. All were successful EMCO 2900lbs springs Part #PR5 -Old springs were 2500lb versions and had begun to droop a little. The loaded...

Hi all, I have a 2006 Raptor 3612 that needs a new axle. Does anyone know what the weight rating is for these axles? I have found out that Dexter bought the original axle company. And should have the axles. I’m guessing 6000 lbs but a can’t find any decals or literature. I bought this new and...

New owner, so please be patient. I have searched and read almost all posts regarding this, but have a newb question. We have a new 2024 Nobo 19.2 with curt beast mode suspension and lippert frane/ axle. Picked it up last Friday. Does anyone know what brand grease comes in the bearings? I...

I am new owner of a 2009 FR Wildcat 25RL. The previous owner said he never checked the wheel bearings so I thought I would. They are sealed JRM4249-JRM4210XD-TIMKEN bearing with a lock nut that holds the hub/brake drum on. I sent FR support the info from the axle tag, and he reached out Lippert...

This is a new take on a previous post of mine. I have a Passport 199ML that has the wide spread axles, so to change a tire with a Trailer Aid or similar will not work....already tried it. I can't jack it up on one side of the frame b/c the gas line runs the entire length. A major concern is...

I am wondering how to tell if the torsion axles on my 2008 Forest River Rockwood Ultra Lite are going bad. Attached is a picture from one side of the rear axle. Is that rubber that's torn an indication that the axle is going bad? I've read about jacking the trailer up and measuring for at least...

Took home a FR trailer this week and it's great. TV is a 2016 RAM 5.7. Mods include Fox 2.5 leveling shocks in the front, Fox 2.5 rear shocks and Tufttruck HD rear springs. Max TV front and rear axle ratings are 3900 lb each. Per the CAT scale, the empty TV front axle weighs 3280 lb., rear...

I need this forum help. i think my axle is bent but not sure,my right side rear tire has a lot of wear on the inside of the tire more than the other 3 but they are showing wear. i replaced the tires in march of 2021 with Goodyear Endurance tires. i pulled the wheel bearings out to look at them...

Hi everyone Traveling home from vacation and stuck in the middle of Montana, blew a tire and the whole axle bent. Looking for specs to buy a new axle for my 2021 wolf pup preferably an upgrade to the original. Tried google but couldnt find anything. If anyone can help asap. Will try to find it...

My 2021 GeoPro has a single torsion axle. I have pored through the posts here and pretty much find discussion around jacking limited to multiple axle trailers. I get that that multiple axles are more complicated. With a single axle is there anything wrong with simply placing a jack under...

Asking about my 2021 R192 I bought new. I am on the second passenger side tire in 36 months this month. At 25 months, the one on the passenger side exploded while driving through Atlanta. Clear day and no objects in the hiway. It had just under 10,000 miles on it. Bought two new tires in GA...

So, first a HUGE thank you to the members that helped me realize my truck is insufficient for the rig I was wanting! (I cannot tag them here for some reason..) Anyway, after some investigation I found that the sticker that should tell me my truck's towing capacity is missing. So, I had a...

I was underneath my 2021 179dbk replacing tires like every spring as for some reason I always get cracked sidewalls from the fall to the spring. Anyways, I noticed a sticker on my axle I had never seen before. It stated 4400lbs. Now according to my weights sticker, I have 4800lbs for the gross...
