Has anyone had a problem with their wheel or axle on their Bighorm? When we left the rally in Elkhart we went to Virginia, then to Maine and then on into Canada. Each time we stop for fuel we do a walk around and I would notice from time to time that the back right wheel looked as if it was sticking out at the bottom when compared to the wheel in front of it. It did not always happen, but it bothered me. On the return trip home we stopped to refuel in Mississippi and that is when we noticed the back LEFT tire was considerably worn on the inside. It was worn enough to see the steel belting. The nearest (I should say only) tire shop did not have a LT235/80R16E tire, only a LT235/85R16E. So we had him take the tire off of the spare and place it on the wheel and we bought his tire for a spare as we did not want to be on the road without a spare.
Has anyone had a problem with a tire wearing on the inside? The tire dealer said it was an axle problem. I called Southwest RV and they said it might be or it might not be. So I made an appointment for tomorrow morning.
We had the rig weighed at the rally to make certain we were not over loaded, and we never go over 60 m.p.h. When we get on a rough highway we bring the speed down to what ever is necessary for a better ride. I would expect a problem with the front axle more so than the rear. Needless to say I was not excited about having to spend $110 on a tire near the end of the trip.
