I made it home I think much to the disgust of other travelers and about to jack the rear up to have a gander ... any points commonly to look at there?... Plz note I have done many trips up there towing Trailer loads & my boat over the last couple of years ... TIA for any feed back .. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There could be an egg on the inside of the tyre or a subtle bump on the actual tread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least you have an easy fix there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
