Thank you for providing that picture. Since you have a #11 Torflex the correct lift kit is the # K71-724-02 you were looking at. If you were worried about the listed 4,100-6,000 lb capacity that isn't something to get too caught up in.

The distance between the mounting bolt holes is what really matters and that is determined by the axle number. The #11 has 9-1/2" between the mounting bolt holes on center which is what this kit is designed for. The # K71-707-01 which is designed for #10 Torflex only has 8" between the bolt holes.
