Car hauler trailer rear tires bald UPDATE

So I finally had the chance to climb up underneath this thing with all y'all's comments and procedures printed out and tape measure in hand. I jacked it up and put it on stands, removed the rears and started laughing. The rear axle was taco'ed. Not sure why or how but wow. I would have thought this would have been more evident from the outside but this is a very low slung trailer and the tire angle didn't give it away. I guess its time to get out the leather folding repair tool. Thanks Everyone. Aaron
 
thats bad, i saw a guy one time had a borrowed trailer, i was at the dump and somebody had dropped off a walnut stump that was huge, [came in a tandem axle dump truck] this guy wants it for firewood inspite of the landfill operator telling him how much the thing must weigh, still had the dirt ball on it, after much arguing back and forth the excavator operator [jd 790] picked it up and set it on this guys trailer, it folded the trailer around the axles, all the way to the ground, i suspect somebody has pulled a similar stunt with yours
 
I spent 20 years building and repairing trailers just like yours, if you want to talk to me about your problem you can call me at 320-492-9077. I may be able to save you some time, effort, and $.
 
Tom,

Taco'd and Potato Chipped. Very technical terms to describe any item that should be straight, yet for some reason is all bent to @!#$.

When my buddy hit a tree on his dirt bike, "Man, I taco'd my rim hard on that tree".

Think these are words that were originated from the skateboarders of the early 80s. Just my guess, because I am for sure no literary genius.
