How does one determine the proper axel alignment on dual axle trailer? Rookie. Need all the help I can get. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

One thing you can do is to measure the distance between the wheels, center to center see if there is a differance from the right side and compare it to the left side.

The second thing you can do is stand behined your camper from a distance and look down the right side then the left side to see if the one wheel or tire is off set from the other.

What type of suspenion do you have leaf or torsion? this will determine how to fix it.

As much as it pains me to do this, Go to RV.net, there's a great writeup by J Barca that explains how to measure and adjust the axle alignment. Here's the thread about it. Axle alignment

John know his stuff. He helped me with a bunch of emails back and forth when I had a problem with my trunnion bars rubbing the cam pivot bolts on my Reese Straight Line hitch.
