Question bolting up new axles...
Have 2001 Jayco Quest 28 ft I've dropped old axles and ready to bolt up new axles. Changing the spring hangers, all bushings and new electric brake assemblies. The new 1/2" bolts going in have grooves...

Thanks guys. I have grade 5 bolts so will pull them to 60 lbs.
I didn't know about the wet kit for the hangers and trailer supply place didn't mention them as an option, sure wish I'd known.
I figured that if I kept the bolts centered I'd be ok on alignment of axles but the suggestion of having them checked probably worth doing.
This was my first travel trailer of three and still like using it for short trips. I've probably spent more keeping it up than I should have but we set up at gun shows, flea markets, etc and 28 ft great for getting around civic center parking lots and still plenty room for my wife and I for weekend shows.
