My axles are rated about 4500 and have never had a problem.

Before you go to a shop for alignment at least jack up each wheel and check the wheel bearings by insuring there is littl play. I call it a shimmy test. Also make sure the lugs stay torqued to 90 ft lbs. These lugs will loosen.

Also make sure that your axles are not overloaded by driving the truck through truck scales. Make sure you are less than 10400 on those axles.

I do wish Keystone would put heavier axles on these rigs. If I start having problems I will probably change axles. But with way over 20000 and 2 orignal tires with little wear I will keep mine for now.
