For your 2003 Sun Valley RoadRunner travel trailer, the #10 torflex axle will use lift kit # K71-707-01 if your axle is rated for 2,300 to 4,000 lbs. If you have a #9 Torflex axle with 2,000 lb capacity then you will want # K71-723-01. We also tandem axle kits like # K71-707-02

If you have the Torflex #11 axle rated for 4,100 to 6000 lbs, we have the tandem axle kit # K71-724-02. If you have the Torflex #12 axle rated for 5,500 to 7,000 lbs, then we have tandem axle kit # K71-725-02. We do not have the single axle kits for these size axles.
