Thanks for checking on that; since the lift kits for Torflex axles are specific to what axle you have, there will only be a certain amount of lift available. For example, the only lift kit that could potentially work with your 3,000 lb axle is the Torflex Lift Kit - Single Axle # K71-707-01 which offes 2-5/8" of lift. This lift kit works with single #10 Torflex axles that have capacities from 2,300 lbs to 4,000 lbs. It is important to note that this kit is not compatible with either top-mounted torsion axles or Torflex axles with 3" high profile brackets.
