Expert Reply:
The over under conversion kits like item # K71-384-00 you referenced only work on round axles. To lift your square axle trailer, I recommend replacing the leaf spring hangers with longer ones. The Tandem-Axle Trailer Hangers for 1-3/4" Wide Double-Eye Springs - 3-1/4" Tall Front item # H248 would be a great option. You will want to measure the length of your current hangers and then check out the link I attached that has all of our hangers. Once you decide how much of a lift you are looking for you will just need to find the corresponding hangers.
