[VAC] Re: Axles
Tim
The angle that means the most is what it looks like when it's fully loaded
and ready to go on the road... That is how you trailer it and that is how
much flex you have before you are hitting the stops and the trailer is
getting hammered... How it hangs when the tire is off is not as important
if at all....If you trailer it empty to a park, and stay for the season,
you could check it empty.. If it looks marginal or in the "green" you can
postpone the axle change-out... As to the pre 74 info, our Safari was a 78
and definitely needed the work...It could have had a lot of miles on it..
the old number on the trailer was only 3 digit...
