To raise your 2008 Cougar 5th-Wheel Trailer a few inches, I recommend using a Dexter Over-Under Conversion Kit. This kit will allow you to move the leaf trailer springs to the top of the axle, effectively lifting the trailer's suspension the width of the axle. This will work great as long as your trailer uses double-eye spring suspension.

For 3 inch axles, you will use # K71-385-00 and for 2-3/8 inch axles, you will use # K71-384-00.

I have attached a demonstration video and the installation details for you to look over.
