Suspension Lift for 2015 Lance 1575 Trailer

Question

Question:

I see several questions asked about lifting a Lance 1575 trailer with a Dexter Torflex axle and your experts keep responding that you have a kit for either for the #9 axle or the #10. From what I can tell these kits will only fit the 2018 model with a new frame design. I had even seen somebody say they bought your kit from your advice and it did not fit. I would order one of your kits if I know it will fit if someone can please confirm this with correct information. I am looking for a kit that will fit a 2012-2016. If it helps here is the info on sticker affixed to the axle Dexter SC160-225 S/N 153642122 3500lb capacity I could also email pictures Thanks

Sounds like you have a Dexter Torflex axle on your 2015 Lance 1575 and you are looking for the correct lift kit for it. You'll need to check out the axle to determine which exact one you have.

Lift # K71-707-01 is for #10 Torflex axles with 2,300 to 4,000-lb capacities.

Lift # K71-723-01 works with #9 Torflex axles with a 2,000-lb capacity.

From what I could find on your 2015 Lance 1575 it looks like you have a #10 Torflex axle which means you need part # K71-707-01.

Each of these lift kits will give your Lance 1575 2-5/8" of extra clearance.

Thanks for the picture! From that I can tell the correct Torflex lift kit you need is the # K71-707-01 which fits the 4,500 lb Torflex number 10 Dexter axles like I can tell that you have. We've had a few people with your Lance 1575 trailer use this lift kit and it has worked just fine without any fit issues so it will work well for you. I was not able to find any of our customers report that this didn't fit a 3,500 lb Torflex axle like what you have.
