Expert Reply:
We don't have blocks for lifting your 5th wheel, but we do have a couple of options. The first is to use an over-under kit like the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-384-00 for 3,500 lb axles (2-3/8 diameter) or # K71-385-00 for larger capacity 3 inch diameter axles. These kits allow you to flip your axles to the underside of the leaf springs raising your trailer height by the diameter of your axle plus the height of your leaf spring stack.
