Can You Align the Timbren Axle-Less Systems
Updated 08/06/2015 | Published 08/05/2015
Question:
Im looking to replace the AL-KO axle on my 2003 Scamp 16foot trailer. It is welded to the frame and has no adjustments for alignment purposes. Consequently, uneven tire wear has been an issue with it even though I had a specialty shop align bend it. Id like to gain about 3inch lift from a replacement axle, so I can use larger wheels presently has 13 and achieve greater ground clearance for the off-road travel we do. I think this kit will do the job, but Id like to know what alignment adjustments can be made to it once installed. Does it have cam-type washers like on my Xterra or what? Thanks.

I spoke to my contact at Timbren and he said that their Axle-Less systems like the part # A35RS545E that you referenced does have the ability to be aligned. It comes with shims that allow you to make small alignment adjustments.
