tilting rear end of '68 GT

Our 68 Globetrotter has a definite lean in the rear end. What needs to be done?

YOu may have some sag in the rear. Rear bath trailer have been known to have issue like that, however usually they are older.

Send a pic like was posted above. Attach it or put your pics in the photos listed at the top.

Is it a side to side lean? A fore to aft lean? Does the body look like a banana bending downward? Could be several things. Might need new axle, might need frame work.

Like they said, a few pics would help the diagnosis.
