Check your spring hangers?

Stopped at mom and dads driveway when we got home from Yellowstone and found the tires touching and one tire with missing tread and a broken hanger. We heard a noise about 4 miles from home. We thought it was something in the bed of the truck.

Added some angle to both sides of each hanger and the cre3000 and wet bolts.

That day you should have purchased lottery tickets! Luck was on your side!! Glad it did not mess your trip up!

I heard that happened to you. Guess you didn't want the manufacturer, probably Lippert, to mess it up again. Do you think that the long length of your trailer not having a 3rd axle could have contributed to it?

A triple axle would put more stress on the hangers when turning. The hangers are just week. I'm sure my rough driveway is hard on it but the 4500 miles to Wyoming and back was very bad. The Interstate highways are in awful shape.
