Question:
I have a single 3500 lbs axle and I want to add additional clearance. I want the springs on top of the axle. My axle it slightly flexed. Do you have a conversion kit?

Expert Reply:
The over-under kit you will likely want to use is the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-384-00. This over-under kit fits 2-3/8 inch round axles on trailers with double-eye springs.
If your axle is a 3 inch round axle, and your trailer used double-eye springs, you will want to use kit # K71-385-00.
I have attached a picture showing what the axle set-up will look like with the over-under kit installed. The spring seat will need to be tack welded to the axle once in the correct position.
