Can Spring Seats For 3500lb Axle Be Order By Themselves Instead Of Getting Axle Flip Kit?
Question:
I have a 2021 Forest River Grey Wolf 26DBH. I scrape the scrape bar v when entering the driveway. Im going to weld on some skid wheels and do an axel flip. Do you sell the axel perchs by themselves? Since its brand new, I highly doubt I need new U bolts and hardware. But, if I were to buy the conversion kit, would I need to purchase two?

We do sell spring seats by themselves, and you are correct that with your 2021 Forest River Grey Wolf 26DBH being so new that the U-bolts and U-bolt plates should still be in good enough shape to be reused instead of purchasing an entire kit.
Based on the information I was able to find on your trailer it should have tandem 3500lb axles in which case you would need four of the spring seats # TRSS238 which will need to be welded onto your axle by a qualified welder and will allow you to move your axle from above the leaf springs to underneath.
If you were two but the entire kit, the # K71-384-00, you would need two as one kit is for one axle.
I included videos of the products mentioned for you to take a look at.
