Can Lippert Shock Kit Fit Springs Above and Below Axles
Question:
My 2016 Aspen Trail 19 ft. trailer has the spring below the axle. I do not see any pictures etc that show this installation. Will this kit fit this type of suspension. also have noticed some reviews which state the shocks are really not very good.

Expert Reply:
Yes, you can install the shock kit part # LC281281 on either orientation of axle. With them above or below the leaf springs. You will just need to orientate the shock so that it does not end up interfering with the axle as the suspension compresses.
