odd tire wearing issues on 5er

I have noticed that the tires on my 5th wheel wear patterns are screwy it looks alot like a ball joint issue on a front of a truck on some. Others are wearing on the outside really heavy onters on the inside. Can you get a trailer alignment?

Sounds to me like your axles are not aligned/parrallel to each other. Also, is your tire pressure OK and are you sitting level???

Could a guy do a quick check by measuring from the center of the hub to center of the hub on either side. As far as level I would say it looks level and nothing out of place.
