HELP...Strange Tire Wear
Forest River RR19 toy hauler. Very strange wear on just one tire. These tires all have about 14,000 miles on them. Three of them look perfect but one tire has strange wear. this is rear, drivers...

Looks due to way off-camber. Maybe sagging springs, overloaded trailer or an unbalanced load could be causes but you say you've never had a toy in it. Ever been to a scale all fully loaded up tho? What is age (per date code) and load rating of tires? If original tires and 7-8 years old or more, time to replace all 4 anyway. I see that the 19RR toy hauler has about 4K lbs CCC on a GVWR of about 7500 lbs so it would take a lot to overload it without a toy in it. If you do go to a scale, try to get side-side and axle-axle wts or each wheel.
As noted, underside of the trailer looks somewhat in need of TLC. Have the wet bolts ever been lubed? Equalizers okay?
I would spend the couple hundred buck it takes for an inspection at a frame and axle shop and get a detailed inspection. Could be any number of things or a combination of them, some of which aren't always obvious.
