Can Over/Under Conversion Kits be Used with 2 Inch Wide Trailer Leaf Springs
Question:
I originally thought p/n K71-385-00 would work to raise my gooseneck horse trailer with 3inch axle. That is, until I read somewhere in specs that it is designed for 1 3/4inch wide springs. Upon further checking, I found that my axles are rated 6000 lb and my springs are 2inch wide. Do you offer a kit or parts that would allow me to perform this conversion?

Helpful Expert Reply:
The over/under conversion kits such as # K71-385-00 do only work with 1-3/4 inch wide double eye springs. In order to raise the height of your trailer with its wider springs is to use taller spring hangers. I have included a link to our hanger main page for you.
