    Default Trailer tires


    Ok guys my boat trailer tires are wearing Bad I mean bad on the inside. I noticed this a couple years ago and had them turned around and ruining max air pressure but its getting worse. What's the problem.

    Make sure the axel isn't bowed, also jack the trailer up and spin the tires. Make sure they spin quiet. I had the same wear as you on the left side of my trailer. The inner bearing was not seated properly. I took it off 3 or 4 times before I realized what the problem was.

    I had the same problem but my axle was sagging from to much load. I had to replace with a larger axle.

    I think it's the axel this is the second bass tracker I had that has done this.

    It's most likely the axle... Had the same problem before and replace it. Never had anymore problems...

    I have that problem from time to time on a 4 wheeler trailer. I've over loaded it and the axle is bowed. You can replace it or , as I do, you can chain down the axle on the outside and jack up the middle putting 1 or 2 degrees of camber in it.
