I recently noticed that one of the four tires had some dramatic wear and obviously needs adjustment. Does a tire shop like Discount Tires or a retail shop like that do this type of work - or what do you recommend? Thanks.

What kind of suspension?
This is probably going to a job for a dedicated trailer shop. Could also be bearings if the wear is on the inside.
If you have integrity, nothing else matters. If you don't have integrity,
nothing else matters.
i am told they all will simply measure to see if it is aligned right, so you can do that. i ended up with a new "dexter wet bolts" kit to fix my issues a couple of us did this a couple months ago and there is a bunch to read if you search it

It's a 1999 Ranger Trail Trailer. I'll do a search in my area for trailer repair. What about a Ranger dealer?Originally Posted by CatFan

What kind of suspension and how is it wearing? Could be as simple as changing the trailing arm if it’s a torsion axle.
Ranger dealer might be able to recommend somebody, but not likely going to be able to bend the axle.

A 1999 trailer does not have a torsion axle. It's a traditional leaf spring. A Ranger dealer might be able to refer you to an alignment shop that can do the alignment. But, the dealer won't be able to do it. Call the Ranger Trailer Department and they can give you all the info you'll need on how the alignment is done so that you can tell your local alignment shop.

Depending on where you live and services available it may be best to change the axle.
Depending on the model some are not very expensive.
