Can a Lift Kit Be Installed On a Malone MicroSport

Question

Question:

I have a Malone Micro Sport kayak trailer. Do you sell a suspension blocks that can raise the suspension allowing for a larger off road type tire installed? Is there a torsion type independent suspension that may work? We are overlanding with a lifted jeep gladiator and may need more capability from our Malone trailer.

Unfortunately, since the Malone MicroSport Trailer # MPG460G uses slipper springs and the axles sit below the leaf springs you are not going to be able to lift this trailer.

Also for what it's worth, this trailer does come with bias ply tires # AM30670 which is going to be best suited for off road applications.
