Found during inspection: the inner fender has slowly worn into the reinforcement ply of this steering axle air hose. Itā€™s a good reminder to check hose routing and clearance regularly and correct issues before they turn into bigger problems.

During an inspection, 3 of 4 sliding axle locking pins on this loaded trailer were not engaged.

Always verify every locking pin is fully engaged before your trip and after every adjustment.
