Availability of Product to Provide Suspension Lift for Keystone Fifth Wheel Trailer
Question:
Are there any kits made in order to raise my 5th wheel a couple of inches? I have 2019 keystone cougar with lift springs road armor.

We do indeed have some kits that will raise the axles a bit, but we would need to know the manufacturer of the axle (look for a tag or sticker affixed to the axle tube) and whether the trailer has a torsion or a leaf spring suspension.
Since you're using the road armor system, you'll have a leaf spring suspension. The best bet would be the Tandem axle lift kit, # RR23QX. The kit would lift your trailer by 2-1/4 inches.
If your leaf springs sit under the axle, and your axle is 2-3/8 or 3 inches in diameter you can relocate them to the top of the axle using a Over Under Relocation kit like # K71-384-00 for a 2-3/8 inch or # K71-385-00 for a 3 inch. This option would give you approximately the diameter of the axle increase in height.
I've linked to some product description videos for you.
