    2017 Ranger Trailer tire wear

    I have a 2017 Ranger 520c. I noticed that tires are not wearing evenly. All four tires are showing a lot more wear on the inside edge. Is there a way I can correct it before putting new tires on it? I believe I seen a post on here probably a year ago about replacing the torsion are bolts to help correct this. Appreciate any help.

    New torsion bolts from Basscat and tighten to the proper Torque is where I would start at

    I had 2 on my 2014 that wore on the inside on opposite corners on a 2 axle. I pulled the tires off and found that the arm of the torsion bar where the splined hub comes thru, the spline was not flush with the arm. I removed the bolt, tapped the spline flush, replaced the bolt with those from BBC, torqued to 150 foot pounds and now all is good !!
