Based on the information I could find on your 31' 2008 Jayco Jay Feather it would have included 2 #10 Dexter Torflex axles. Those axles will need the Torflex Lift Kit # K71-707-02 which includes 2 set of lift spacers for 2-5/8" lift on both axles. I do see that these using mounting holes that are 8" on center but you mentioned having 8-1/2" for your bolt holes. Can you please verify this measurement on your Jay Feather?

I can absolutely confirm the correct lift kit for your trailer. Based on your photos, you do in fact have a #10 Torflex axle, and they are compatible with the lift kits because you do not have 3" high-profile brackets (which just means the…

Hi Robert, So there isn't one that can be used with a cordless drill (which would be an electric jack only) as all the electric A-frame jacks are all higher than the 12" to 14" you want. There is a manual crank jack you can use which I…

Hi Robert, So I know you don't want to, but the only option for a hitch extension for your 2-1/2 inch hitch does reduce the receiver to 2 inches. I hope you're not mad at me, but there unfortunately is no 2-1/2 inch hitch extender that also…
