There are suspension upgrades available for the 2007 Keystone Everest 344J but they are not designed to raise your carrying capacity of the fifth wheel trailer. The carrying capacity of your trailer is set by the manufacturer and cannot be changed. Suspension enhancement is designed to support the existing suspension on the trailer to prevent sagging, improve ride quality, and prolong the life of your suspension components. The carrying capacity I was able to find on line for the Keystone Everest 344J model is 2835 lbs.

I recommend to use SumoSprings Trailer Helper Springs w/ Line Relocation Bracket part # TSS-107-40 which will support the leaf springs and increases the stability of the suspension. They are designed of a microcellular material that compress up to 80% under heavier loads for increased ride quality.
