Will Lowering Leaf Springs On Hangers Raise The Ride Height Of Trailer?
Question:
How much height can I gain by moving the leaf springs down with each hole on the supports?

Helpful Expert Reply:
It sounds like you are talking about moving your leaf springs down further on the hangers installed on the frame of your trailer.
If that is the case then as long as each end of the spring is moved down the exact same distance, you will get the much lift in your trailers ride height.
For example if you move the leaf springs and equalizers 1" lower on all of the hangers, you will get 1" lift.
If you need more lift than your current hangers can give you going with the Correct Track Alignment and Axle Lift Kit # RR23QX which acts as an extension for the hangers and gives you another 2" of lift.
I included a video of the # RR23QX for you to take a look at.
