    On a trip recently and had issues with the inside of both rear axle tires being worn to the belts. I dont recall doing anything to bend an axle. Hubs and bearing were snug so not the problem. Dealer has the boat now and I am sure marine master will blame on use.

    Dealer replaced the axle but one of the tires on boat driver side sticks out about an inch to inch and a half compared to front axle tire. My question is whether this will cause any problems over time to tire ware or anything else. Tires on opposite side match up.

    I would say they installed the wrong Axle.
