Aluminum Pin and Subframe
I have read a few other posts about the reliability of aluminum pins and subs for both farm and OTR use. I'd like to hear from some of you as to how Timpte and Wilson compare with regard to the issues other people have seen. I'm looking for info on pretty late model trailers, say 2015 to present, closed tandem for OTR use at 80000#. Do widebased tires affect things in any way? I have a friend who runs them all around and says they ride much better, but I din't know if that had any bearing on the sub failures some people have seen. If a guy buys a 2015-16 that has run average highway miles, how long will it be before any problems show up?
