New Attitude Trailer Leaning

I picked up this 2018 Attitude 28IBG model few weeks back. We took it out last weekend, and I was surprised how unpleasant the towing was. I had a quite a bit of sway and felt the trailer was pulling to the sides the entire trip.

After I got home and unloaded the trailer I notice the trailer sits pretty unlevel side-to-side. The left side does have a slide and side kitchen, but I was surprised that you can actually see it leaning.

When I load it, I place my 1800 lb rzr on the right side of the trailer, so I would think it would even it out a bit; however, is this lean while the trailer is empty normal? Or should I be concerned something isn't right with it?

I didn't really pay attention during the pdi. We did the walk through pretty fast and it was also inside a large garage bay so I didn't really get to stand back and look at it. You can't really notice it unless you're looking directly at the front. Although pulling it home that first day, I felt that something wasn't right with how it towed. It's pretty heavy, but felt as if it wants to pull to the side more than anything I've towed before.


i hear ya on that, lots of take in at a pdi.

how about something simple like air pressure on all four tires?

Start looking at the springs. Then get it weighed side to side.
