    How old is the unit? That is probably as important as how many miles. It would help to know what kind of trailer you're talking about: TT or 5th wheel, and what make and model. Have you done a lot of off roading, i.e. dirt roads, back country camping, etc.?

    IIRC those are a Lippert part, so if they told you you're SOL it doesn't sound good. I put the Dexter EZ Flex on my 5th wheel, so that is an option if you don't want to replace same with same.
