There seems to be lots of discussions regarding folks changing out tires and/or axles and/or springs etc etc on brand new TT's . Is this normal ?
Not unheard of but also not common IMO, the trick I think being to pick a trailer that has considerable CCC, meaning a trailer with a UVW
at least a ton or more under it's GVWR even if you never could conceive of loading so much junk into the trailer that it's GVW loaded & ready to camp would ever come anywhere near it's GVWR. That's been the case with the last two trailers I've owned and I've never had an issue with running gear with either one. :)
Nylon equalizer bushings wearing out quite quickly is just the nature of the beast and is common ... if it's an issue that concerns you just swap them out for a wet bolt kit with brass bushings that will last considerably longer. I did this with my previous KZ Spree, haven't yet bothered with my current Coachmen but now that it's 4 yrs old likely will the next time I have it in the shop as it's a pretty good investment for anyone who intends to keep their trailer long term. :)
