Axle replacement
My boat trailer has worn tires on the inside since we bought the boat and trailer new. I noticed it was almost time to replace the tires again and thought I might replace the axel to a higher rating. I dug out the boat paperwork last night and was surprised that the trailer was only rated for 2200 lbs and the boat and trailer empty is heavier than that. The axel is bowing from the weight and has a negative camber thus wearing the tires on the inside. It sounds like an easy repair but figured I'd ask the forum for any suggestions before I start.
