Tire Wear on Opposite Sides

I have a question about tire wear on opposite sides of the camper(2014 Surveyor Cadet 201RBS) at a diaganol to each other. The tires are wearing bad on the inside of the front tire on front axle and rear tire of the rear axle. I have about 2500 miles on the camper and these are the original tires. No problems at all until the last 400 mile trip and at the end of the trip I noticed the wearing. I also noticed that the tires had rubbed the inside of the wheel well a few times. Any suggestions. The only difference for this trip was my new Ford F150 (4 wheel drive) vs my old Ford F150 (2 wheel drive).

Take it to a shop that can align trailers. My bet is bent axles or a loose axle mount on one side of each axle.

Finally got the camper to the shop, two bent axles, they realigned the axles after re-bending. I really do not remember hitting anything, but i guess it's possible. The shop recommended replacing the existing axles #2500 lbs with at least #3500 lbs axles. I also replaced all tires with the Goodyear Endurance tires.
