excessive outside tire wear

I have a2007 3400 monte. mission tires have had to replace 3 two were starting to get sidewall seperation. all three are wearing badly on the outside. I run 80 lbs. I am not overloaded. I am afraid the axles are not straight. I don't think keystone warrants the axles after a year. I bought it in july of 06., but its a 07 model. the 4th tire is good its on the passenger side rear axle. don't know where to go to have it checked out. went to a big rv shop in lodi calif., they said they don't do that work. any ideas i need some help? rving LOU

We had to have our 3400 aligned as a result of tire wear. Ours happened to still be under warranty. The Dealership sent us to a truck repair shop.

I had to have the axles re-aligned after the bolt holding the end of the springs sheared. I went to a trailer dealer in San Antonio. They did a bang up job! I was sent there by my Montana dealer who said the trailer dealer had the equipment to make the best repairs.

The old Al-Ko axles had a two year warranty, from Al-Ko.
