Yes, the over-under kit, part # K71-384-00, does fit a 2-3/8 inch Lippert axle as well. It fits any 2-3/8 diameter round axle with a double-eye leaf spring suspension.

Also yes, Lippert axles also have a bow in them that needs to face upwards. I don't know of any round trailer axles that aren't bowed but there's likely some exceptions.
