Can Thicker Leaf Springs be Used to Raise Height of Trailer
Updated 12/26/2018 | Published 12/22/2018
Question:
Hello, I have a 2012 voltage 40 foot toyhauler and want to lift it a couple inches so it sets level. The springs are on top of the axles already. Do they make heavier springs or an add a leaf set? Thank you

Expert Reply:
Sometimes it is possible to install leaf springs that have more leaves but depending on what you already have installed you may only be able to add taller hangers like the 3-1/4" tall # 28-5.
If you can give me some more information on how many leaves you currently have on your leaf springs and what the eye-to-eye measurement is as well as your axle weight rating I can see if we have leaf springs that you can use.
I have also attached links to our selections of hangers and leaf springs for you to check out.
