Installed on a 2017 NuCamp Tag XL. Needed a little extra head room for the kitchen clamshell. Install was easy with basic tools, a couple jack stands, tape measure and some red loctite. Lift height is as claimed because it directly lifts the axle. Product has worked great, nothing has come loose or shifted. Stability towing has not changed. The only trouble is the wiring for the fender light is a little tight but that is a camper issue, no fault of the lift.
by: Zach 04/22/2024
Very easy to put on, took about 2 hrs. Make sure you order the correct sized one. Don't just go by the axle number measure the frame width and distance between the holes. Makes a big difference on what my camper can clear and the size of dips I can get thru without hitting. Get a few extra blocks for the stabilizer.

Easy install and was happy with the extra clearance

Mounted up perfectly to my 2001 jayco eagle 10ud!
by: Edward01/07/2023
It's expensive for what you get, although the quality is nice. It did the job on my Bushwhacker teardrop.
Very easy to install. Took me about 30 minutes.
by: AC06/18/2023
excellent kit....plenty of extra clearance for dirt roads that may not be graded or leveled perfectly. Sits higher in the tow position which levels out the trailer at a normal height instead of having to use a severe drop hitch.
by: Peter05/31/2020
Ordering was easy. Shipping was on time. Communication on shipping was good.
The kit appeared to well made. Didn't see any issues upon opening. The instructions were clear and easy to follow.
The only thing was the bolts and nuts, I don't know if they have some sort of locktite or something on them but I had to wrench them from the first two turns to the end, and really had to work at it as they were incredibly tight. At first I thought that either I had cross threaded them or that the bolt and nut were different threads, neither was an issue. It took me probably twice to three times longer to install the kit because of this. It was easier to take off the very rusted original bolts than putting the new ones on.
The final results were excellent.
by: Brad05/04/2022
Items ordered were received in good condition and the install went very smooth. Customer service was top notch since there were back ordered items and options were presented. Would definitely recommend using e trailer.

This lift kit works as expected. No issues and added the extra ground clearance I was looking for
by: Chris08/16/2023
Worked perfectly to give my 2010 Jayco pop up camper some extra ground clearance. The only difficulty was tightening the nuts and bolts. Getting them threaded and started was easy but then was met with a lot of resistance.
Using a socket and closed end wrench proved difficult but finally had success by using to closed end wrenches together.

Horrible customer service delivery was two after the delivery date was emailed. Would not recommend

Saw this link on [another] site. Didn’t know it existed. Ordered one right away. Shipped the next day for free! Very easy install. Looks great. Hopefully no more mangled license plate.

I ordered this kit to provide extra room for tires(AM3S120) that have a higher speed rating. Everything shipped quickly! The kit fit perfectly with no problems.
by: Marissa01/10/2020
I love my camper, but my only complaint is that it did not have the ground clearance I needed for anything but the best roads. This kit allows me to get off-road, not to very extreme conditions, but much better than it was without it.
by: Scott06/08/2018
Works great! This product comes with all the parts required to bolt on to the camper/axle...
by: Jeffb08/22/2019
I installed these on a 725T aluminum frame 1999 Terry. They raised the trailer a couple inches which doesn't sound like much but made all the difference in dragin the back bumper, back levelers etc. Couldn't tell any difference in towing or fuel useage. Any ways it wasn't enough to notice. Trailer handled the same. Make sure to cross check fitment with the folks at the store. I didnt originally and paid a hefty restock shipping fee for not doing so. Good luck and Happy Trails

The lift did what I needed it to do. I havent noticed any difference in towing. A few inches makes a big difference. Installed on 2000 25fleetwood terry.
by: Ronald 09/14/2018
It was a easy fix to lift my 1988 Jayco, about 2 hours including finding and placingthe jack stands, didn’t have to take off the wheels like the video recommends, used wrenches instead of hooking up air and using the impact gun! Looks great when I kick back and look at it!

Worked out great on the lift kit
by: Dino10/02/2022
Well the package arrived in time but none of the nuts only go on the bolt about two turns and that is it? Totally disappointed? I can't even install the kit. What's really sad is this is factory kit from Dexter Axel the company that made my trailer axels. I will call etrailer tomorrow and try to get this straightened out.
by: C11/27/2022
What my trailer needed and at a better price than the manufacture.
by: Victor 09/07/2021
Item came as described. Very stout hardware. Dexter must have fixed the powder coat issue(some reported chipping upon arrival), because the item was fully coated with no paint chips .
This gave me a good lift so that my trailer would not drag everywhere I went. This went on a 1993 Skamper 240C. Install is very easy. 4 bolts to drop the axle. 8 bolts to attach the lift.
Definitely recommend for #9 axle. You can identify yours by crawling underneath the trailer and looking at the capacity. 2000 lbs is #9. Which is this part!
by: Ben 08/21/2020
I have a 2019 Geo Pro FBS without the off-road package. The Geo Pro had 14" wheels. The ground clearance was not that great so I went with this 3" Torflex lift kit.
Now when I say that the installation was easy, that is exactly that. Super easy and it did come with an installation booklet with step by step photos.
Total install time: 1 hr 30 min. That is start to finish.
Total height that I gained: over 5 inches. Because I went with 225/ 75/ 15R.
This is the best route to go toget the extra needed clearance.
by: Mark08/09/2019
They work just as advertised. I used them to lift a T@G teardrop, and the installation was very straightforward. Together with the new, larger tires and wheels I am putting on (going from 13" to 15" wheels), I will pick up just over 4" in additional ground clearance.
by: CT03/03/2021
Installed this about a year ago. Simple and sturdy with good quality. Everything you need is there. Installation took about 30 minutes. My trailer is used for overlanding so this part has proven itself on rough trails and mostly off pavement action.
I probably could have used a taller lift but thats purely personal preference.
by: John 03/31/2021
My Forest River "mini lite" trailer axles wimped out, and the trailer was just about sitting on top of the tires, would rub even if the water tank was full. New axles were out of the question so I got two of these lift kits. problem solved , not a hard install. If you're not sure which axle you have take a picture of the sticker on the axle and call Dexter they will tell you so you can order the right lift kit.
by: Andy08/11/2019
Installed this kit on a 2015 Little Guy Silver Shadow 5 x 10. Kit was easily to install (note this application required rotating the brackets orientation, open side faces inward).
Note: The first order did not make it due to UPS(lost in transit). Etrailer sent a replacement out the same day.

See what our Experts say about this Dexter Trailer Leaf Spring Suspension
- Why Would Lifting Trailer Suspension Potentially Void Trailer WarrantyWhen you lift a trailer you potentially change the suspension geometry which might affect handling characteristics. So based on that it sounds like Lance would want to void the warranty of the camper. It would be like installing a lift kit on a truck and then trying to have a suspension issue after that claimed as a warranty fix. That said, we've not had anyone install a lift on their trailer and then come back and tell us their trailer handled poorly.

When it comes to solar panel kits we have a variety to choose from, but you really need to know how much you're needing prior to purchasing a kit. I'm linking some...

Or, if you have a #9 Torflex axle, we have # K71-723-01, which have a 2,000-lb capacity. Both kits will lift your axle 2-5/8", and includes all the mounting hardware and spacers needed for installation. To fix the bounce, you can use the SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket # TSS-106-40 for underslung axles...

If you check the axle you should find a sticker that has the axle info listed. Or it can also be listed up on the frame of the trailer near the coupler.

view full answer... - Which Lift Kit Fits a Trailer with a Torflex #9 AxleSince you have the Dexter Torflex trailer axles on your Featherlite the correct lift kit is the part # K71-723-01. I attached a picture that shows how this attaches for you to check out as well. It looks like someone fabricated a lift for your application since there's a square piece of metal tube that wouldn't normally be where it is. We won't have a way to install a lift on your setup. But maybe you could go with a larger tire and wheel possibly?

- What Is the Correct Lift Kit for an Airstream Trailer with Torsion AxlesI don't know what axles you have on your trailer but if you look at the axle tag it will tell you this. If you can't comprehend the axle sticker then just send me a photo of this and I will be happy to do that for you. There are a few different lift kits for torsion axle trailers but they vary by manufacturer and capacity. I have attached the options below: Tandem Dexter #11 Torflex Axle (4,100 - 6,000 Lbs) # K71-724-02 Tandem Dexter #10 Torflex Axle (2,300 - 4,000 Lbs) # K71-707-02 Single...

If your 2017 Lance 1575 has Dexter #9 Torflex axles with a 2,000-lb capacity, the Dexter # K71-723-01 lift kit would be the correct lift kit. If you have the # 10 Torlflex axle, you'd need # K71-707-01. Keep in mind, these kits aren't compatible if your axle has the high profile 3 inch tall frame brackets. If you're unsure of what axle your camper has, please send me a photo of the label or tag on the axle, and we can find that out for you.

If not then you can either call the manufacturer with your VIN or crawl under it and look for a tag on the center of the axle.

If you have a Dexter Torflex Axle then you can use one of the following based on your axle capacity. If you do...

From what I could find on your 2015 Lance 1575 it looks like you have a #10 Torflex axle which means you need part # K71-707-01. This will give you a lift of 2-5/8 inches.

I was unable to find a source which could verify exactly what weight and manufacturer axle you will have. If it is a Dexter Torflex you may have either a #9 with mounting holes 7-3/4" on center to use the Lift Kit # K71-723-01 or the #10 with mounting holes 8" on center which will use the Lift Kit # K71-707-01. If you have a different measurement please let me know and I will see if we have...
view full answer... - Lift Kit for Dexter 3K # 10 Torflex Axle on Jayco Feather Ultra Light Single Axle TrailerYou have a 3K rated Dexter # 10 Torflex axle. As long as your axle doesn't have the 3 inch tall mounting brackets, the # K71-707-01 which would provide 2-5/8 inches of lift is the lift kit you'd want. The # K71-723-01 kit you'd looked at is for the # 9 Torflex, and wouldn't work with your axle.
view full answer... - Lift Kit for 1,500 lb #9 Torfllex Dexter AxleMy contact at Dexter confirmed that the Torflex Lift Kit # K71-723-01 will work for your 1,500 lb #9 Torflex axle. That being said, based on your serial number 122265412, I was able to confirm you have a top mounted axle. So in order to install the lift kit, you'll need to replace the existing top mount hangers with a side mount hanger kit, Dexter part number A/P-165-00. You'll need to source that locally though, as we do not carry it.

- Determining Which Torflex Lift Kit Fits A 1998 Forest River Flagstaff Trailer With Tandem AxlesWe may have a Torflex Lift Kit for your 1998 Forest River Flagstaff trailer with tandem axles, but I will need to know the information of the axle tag to confirm which axle you have. With that said none of the Torflex kits available have a 6" bolt pattern, with the smallest mounting bolt pattern being the # K71-723-01 with a 7-3/4" bolt pattern. If you can take a picture of the axle tag and send it over I would be happy to identify which kit fits your axle.
view full answer... - Lift Kit Needed for a Torflex Axle on a 2017 Lance 1575 Travel TrailerI do not advise you flipping the Torflex axle as that is not how it was designed to be used. Instead what you need is a lift kit for your axle. For single Torflex axle trailers we have 2 different lift kits, part # K71-723-01 for #9 Torflex axles and part # K71-707-01 for #10 Torflex axles. From what I could find on your 2017 Lance 1575 it looks like you have a #10 Torflex axle which means you need part # K71-707-01. This kit will lift your trailer 2-5/8" which isn't exactly the 2-7/8"...

- Recommendation to Lift R-Pod for Off-Road Travels with JeepYou should have a Torflex axle on your 2014 R-Pod 177. We do have lift kits like part # K71-707-01 for a #10 Torflex axle or part # K71-723-01 for a #9 Torflex axle but you'll need to look at the tag on your axle to determine what exact axle you have. One of these kits will certainly increase the height of your trailer frame relative to the ground but if you're wanting to increase the overall clearance height of your R-Pod I have a much better solution for you with the Timbren Heavy-Duty...

If you have a Dexter Torflex #10 you would need the Torflex Lift Kit - Tandem Axle # K71-707-02. For a Dexter Torflex #9 you would need two of the Torflex Lift Kit - Single Axle # K71-723-01. If the axle tag is not there you'd have to reach out to Jayco with your VIN for the axle information.

But I would need to know which model torsion axle it is. Check the axle tag for more information on the axle. If it is a regular axle with leaf springs and those leaf springs are currently mounted under the axle then you could potentially move them to mount above the axle using over/under conversion kit # K71-384-00 if you have a 2-3/8 inch diameter round axle.

Assuming that your trailer does have the #9 Torsion axle then the # K71-723-01 would be the correct lift kit and the only one available for your trailer. This kit gives you 2-5/8" of additional ground clearance. If you can provide a photo of the axle spec sticker where you found the serial...

view full answer... - Selecting The Correct Lift Kit For Torflex Axle On a 2014 Starcraft Comet 1221Based on the GVWR of your 2014 Starcraft Comet 1221 of 2,550lbs it is most likely you have a #10 Torflex axle. This will use the Lift Kit # K71-707-01 to raise the trailer 2-5/8" allowing you to increase your tire size. To verify this is the correct lift you will need to measure the center to center distance for the mounting holes. A # 10 Torflex will be 8" on center. The lift kit for the #9 Torflex # K71-723-01 you found has a center to center measurement of 7-3/4".

Great product. Several thousand miles since install with no issues. Did not change the towability or handling characteristics of the camper.
