The Over-Under Conversion Kit you mentioned, part # K71-385-00 is compatible with a 3 inch diameter axle, and would work fine with a fifth wheel camper. For two axles, you would need two kits.

Keep in mind that in raising the trailer, you will be changing the center of gravity and will be making the trailer more top-heavy. By raising the trailer, you might also need to adjust he height of your fifth wheel hitch and pin box if they are adjustable.
