While I have no way to see exactly what axles and suspension are under your 1986 Airstream Sovereign I can help you to determine what you will need. I know Airstream typically uses torsion axles and it looks like your travel trailer has a axle rating of around 3,400lbs per axle which is commonly the #10 Torflex rating. We have the 2-5/8" Lift Kit # K71-707-02 for that capacity axle. You can verify if this is correct by measuring the attachment holes. The #10 Torflex has the mounting holes spread 8" on center. If you have a different measurement or suspension used please let me know what you find and I can ensure we find the correct parts for you.

Thanks for your swift response Bud...much appreciated. I'm pulling the trailer out of storage Mar 31st, and will double check the mounting holes and suspension further and revert back. Thanks again. Gordon Vancouver BC
