Option for Lifting Trailer without Leaf Springs
Question:
I have a 2001 Jayco Kiwi that is really low to the ground. I scheduled an appt to do an axle flip. When I looked under the trailer I saw NO leaf springs! What other options are there to raise my trailer?

Sounds like you have torsion axles which is the other common trailer suspension setup aside from leaf springs.
The lift kits we carry fit with specific axles; the # K71-725-02 is a tandem axle application and will give a 3-1/8" lift and is compatible with side-mounted #12 Torflex axles with 5,500-7,000-lb capacities. If that is what your axle is, this kit would work for you.
There are a number of other lift kits for Torflex axles which I'll list for you.
Tandem Axle - 2-7/8" Lift compatible with side-mounted #11 Torflex axles with 4,100-6,000-lb capacities # K71-724-02
Tandem Axle - 2-5/8" Lift compatible with #10 Torflex axles with 2,300 to 4,000-lb capacities # K71-707-02
Single Axle - 2-5/8" Lift compatible with #10 Torflex axles with 2,300 to 4,000-lb capacities # K71-707-01
Single Axle - 2-5/8" Lift compatible with #9 Torflex axles with a 2,000-lb capacity # K71-723-01
