Thanks for the input, even though you guys are scaring me to death.
Now a bit of history about us and this particular trailer. We owned it almost 25 years ago. I bought it back last year, for twice what I sold it for in '83. Walking into it again after nearly 25 years was an eerie experience. When I looked at the left handed plumbing repairs under the sink, I knew only guy who could have done that, me. We figured it was fate, karma, whatever and now we own it again.
After reading the posts I started looking around. The axles are border line, they have still a bit of angle to them. I know the floor is good, but there is one very small place under the front window, less than 4" square that could be replaced. I have had the belly open from the back to the axles, I saw rust but nothing loose, broken through or twisted. There is a small crack in the aluminum over door that has been there a while. I can not see any distortion in the ribs but then again I don't know what to look for.
Now for a question. I am using 1000 lb bars on my hitch, they are stiff. The hitch does ride a bit high compared to the truck and trailer. I have tried to adjust it, but it is either too high or too low. Could the bars be causing the problem? How about having them snatched up too tight, or too loose?
Pending what you guys say next, I guess want to tackle the easy things, wheel balancing is first.
