Checked the wheel alignment after a recent trip. Top of the passenger side wheel toed in. Bent axle for the 3rd time. This time and the first time, I don’t even remember hitting anything that would cause a bent axle. This is ridiculous. Probably time for something different…

Welcome to the world of the torsion axle. Not sure if Rpods still come with Lippert axles or if they switched to Dexter, but it doesn't matter. I have two Dexter, 3500lb Torflex axles on my Escape fiberglass trailer and have already replaced both. Keep your tire pressure on the higher end of recommended to reduce drag on the axle spindle during turns. It's going to be hard to find something without this style of axle.
