This is exactly why you need to find a GOOD dealer. They make all the difference when they fight for your interests. They unfortunately, are hard to find. Luckily for me, I have one, at least so far. My rig is in the shop waiting on warranty parts. The parts are the hold up, at least for me. Rig in shop for 4 weeks now and just waiting on parts, maybe another 3 weeks.

I didn't see your weight listed anywhere? Do you know how much load you had onboard at the time of the failure? were all your tanks full? curious if you were below, at or over weight limit? I have seen many times on utility trailers this type of failure.

Center Bolt

In the spring this year I changed tires, shear springs and greased suspension components. I had a sick feeling when I noticed that there was no center bolt in left rear spring stack. The "U" Bolts were loose. All others were tight.

Howdy,
We run about 13,500 pounds loaded. Water was just below 1/3, other tanks were empty.
There are some very unfriendly overpasses on I-5 between LA & SF.
