Replacement Axle Needed For Motorcycle Trailer

Published 10/13/2021

Question:

I recently purchased a this used trailer from someone. I found out that after riding my left tire wore thin. After further observation, if looking at the back of the trailer the tire is slightly cocked. Can you help me find a solution to this problem? Do you sell an axle replacement or can you recommend something else? Thanks ??

Yes we have a number of axel options available, if you can identify what the current axle is that will be best for suggesting a replacement. I think it will be something similar to the Trailer Axle with Idler Hubs, # e22GR which is a very cost effective option.

My guess is that you most likely have a bent/damaged spindle instead of a bent axle. However, frequently a better cost effective fix is to simply replace the axle with a new one that already has hubs. You get new axle, greased bearings, etc. but first try to identify what axle you have so we know what options you have.
