Great video. Thank you so much for your help and sharing with us your knowledge. I have this problem with a 2022 dorsey trailer (combo) in my back end axle.

I see this exact wear with our trailers that are rear trailers in a train system specially when being hauled emptied

typical big manufacturing compaines trying to make savings in the name of economy and totlay scrwing things up to the point the customers paying more in tyres

Im wondering if you have a similar video covering the 19.5 tire. In my case it is a Continental hybrid on a 2020 F550.

@@MDAlignment pin & point are not coming together yet. But agree it is useful to feeling good that the question is specific enough to feel good about the answer.

Does welding the angle iron on the axle next to tires make a difference? I welded center between suspension. I did not weld the 8” pieces closer to tires.

As we get feedback it seems the wheel ends are significantly more important than the center, with many reports that omitting the middle lost nothing but omitting the outside was the same as doing nothing. I am also hearing from tanker operations specifically that the weld on the outside isn't helping them as much as our other customers. I assume this has to do with the liquid shifting weight, and the greatest amount of flex occurring at the weld on the suspension.

How do you fix inside tire wear if you have the light weight drive axle?
@MDAlignment Жыл бұрын
The available options are: purchase high rolling resistant tires from brands such as Falken. Verify that your wheel bearings are properly adjusted. It has been suggested that you could weld angle iron near the end of the axle similar to what has proven successful on trailer axles but we don't know of anyone that has tried it mostly due to warranty issues.

We have an odd issue where both the inside and the outside of all tires on our trailer edge wear before the tread air pressure is 105 and trailer has new bearings and bushings. Brand of tires doesn’t seem to matter and trailer is in alignment also truck is in alignment any thoughts would be appreciated
@MDAlignment2 ай бұрын
If these are 22.5 dual tires then 105 is more than necessary to carry the max load. Dropping to maybe 90 pounds would still accommodate the load and should eliminate the wear.

@@MDAlignment I should clarify 43ft hopper bottom almost always at full 34k on rear would the 90psi be ok for that

@@lonewolfmjm Yes, the same tire that carries around 6000-6500 pounds on the steer only carries only 4250 (34,000 divided by 2 axles and then by 4 tires) in a dual application. For that weight as a dual the same chart that says you need 105 or 110 psi for a single operation fully loaded only requires 75psi for your duals. Knowing that, you can confidently run 90psi in duals. more information here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qq5-ZsmGq7Wbd4E.htmlsi=5JQp493MXvfDaB08
