Sorry for your troubles Bill. I'm not surprised you lost an axle; that is one monster trailer (full of stuff) (with a few miles). Did you add a pool table?  |

Maybe you should add "trailer repair" to your list of services when traveling.  |

It was good having you in Gunnison, Bill! The timing was perfect! Glad you found the time bombs before they blew - - actually I guess that bearing with race welded to the wheel was already a goner!!!  . Whew! Enjoyed sharing some time and a few meals with you as well. Sorry about the double-whammy of 7703 ft. altitude combined with the thick forest fire smoke, I know that was a butt kicker for you coming up from Phoenix. Thanks for hanging tough! Safe travels to you and Aussie! |
