Correction to my earlier, original post: the tires are wearing on the outside, not the inside.  I was afraid that maybe the axle was bending downward but with wear on the outside of both tires that is not the likely problem.

Florida which I do a couple times a year and this is ~1,000 miles round trip. I am reading that this could be caused by everything from the tires being out of alignment to the axle being bowed because it is insufficient for the load. The trailer is a Triad single axle and is exactly four years old. Any ideas as to what would cause this? I can't believe that I need a new axle after only 4 years?
