Other Options to Raise Trailer Suspension to Allow Trailer to Sit Level
Question:
I have a horse trailer with dual 3500 lb. axles. To match up level with my new F250 I think I have to raise it more than what the 2 5/8” lift kit provides. What other options are available?

Expert Reply:
If your trailer had tandem Dexter 3,500 lb trailer axles and the lift provided by the kit part # K71-707-02 was not enough to level it with your truck you could look into taller tires and wheels. You also should see if you can raise the gooseneck coupler higher to allow the trailer to sit level. It's not super common that horse trailer have torsion axles so I'd verify for sure that's what you have.
I attached a page that has all of our wheels and tires available as well as a link to a page that has all of the tire sizes listed with their overall diameters.
