Recommended Axle Flip Kit to Lift 5th Wheel Trailer
Question:
I have a 6 inch lift on my truck. I just purchased a 2020 Cardinal 377mble 5th wheel. I dont know what axles I have but I do have the Equa-Flex Equalizers on the axles. I have a Goosebox 20k hitch. Ive adjusted the Goosebox to the lowest setting but still have the rear of the camper rather low to the ground. What lift kit would work on this camper to give me a little more clearance from the ground?

There are a couple of options to lift your trailer depending on if your axle's sit above or below the leaf springs.
If your axles are already below your leaf springs the only option is the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit item # RR23QX. This kit mounts to your spring hangers and moves the attachment point down 1-1/4" or 2-1/4".
If your springs are below your axles you will want to use one of our axle flip kits. These work by moving your axle below your springs and give you a lift equivalent to your axles thickness. You will need one per axle.
3" Axle - Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit item # K71-385-00
2-3/8" Axle - Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit item # K71-384-00
I have linked an installation video below.
All of these options will work with Equa-Flex Equalizers.
