I have not picked up my trailer yet which is a 2022 
Momentum 21G but when we did a quick overlook it seemed to me that the axles had a slight bow upward. This is the only picture I have but wondering if that is normal or do you think I have defective axles? I don't pick it up until March 24 so trying to make sure everything is taken care of before then. Looking to see if anyone else has had this issue or maybe it is not an issue.

Normal... as long as it bows up

A bowed (up) axle is how it's manufactured. If it was flat, it would be defective. Keep asking questions. We're here to help.

Yup totally normal. I'm sure I am highly simplifying this, and hopefully the real axle experts here chime in, but the upward bow is to help compensate the weight the RV will put in it, and keep the tires maintain proper camber.

Thank you everyone for your input. I figured it was ok but rather be safe than sorry and I never claim to know everything so it was nice to get answers to put my mind at ease.Comment
