You are in luck. Mr. Front End Inc.,G-3447 S. Saginaw,Burton will fix you up. 810-743-9981
They did my 5th wheel last spring after I had a blow-out on right rear tire the year before and after I had new tires installed, the right rear was running hot. Excellent job(took 2 hrs),checked both axles,one needed fixing(rear). Think it cost about $200,recipt is in 5th wheel at storage lot. This place been around a long time,good rep.,they also do semi's. Give them a call.

What Timmy sid. My experience is that heat is the indicator of a tire being out of alignment on a trialer. Tires that are hotter than others are scuffing or something.

generally dont tow it far enough to determine tire wear, just thinking it pulls kind of hard. mr front end in on the way to work may have to stop in and talk to them. we had one years back that had a bent axle and towed real hard but didnt really show tire wear. just thought i would make sure it is right.

What do you mean by "Pulls Hard"? Unless there is tire wear or it is trying to go sideways probably OK.

Could you have a brake or two that is too tight? I would check the brakes first, if it is "pulling hard".
If your alignment is off enough to make it feel like it pulls hard, it must be WAY out of alignment. And I would think you could feel a temp change in the tires/wheels.
While I don't think it pulls hard due to mis-alignment, I do agree that an alignment check is good to do periodically on a trailer. If for nothing more than peace of mind. Problem is that next time out, you could hit something that will easily throw your alignment out again. And you might never know you did it. So be real careful not to hit pot holes, rough pavement, hop or pinch curbs, don't overload any one (or more) wheels, or make sharp backing turns on dry pavement, etc.
