    Trust needs to be earned. I don't think there's a guaranty that anything built anywhere will not fail or have an issue.

    Yeah, mine was much smaller and I went through the local dexter distributor, so no shipping, IIRC. This was after a local rv repair shop wanted way too much for this fairly simple job.

    I had bad tire wear on my Alaskan trip this year. I assumed I bent the axel. I just finished swapping the bad 4400# axel with a new 6000# axel with new springs, brakes and drums. Shipped to my home for $1k. I would MUCH rather do that than bend my spindle back in place.

    Did you replace just one axle? Or all of them?

    Just the one that was bent. I may replace the other one next year.
