Question:

I have a 2011 rpod 171 and I need to lift it. I thought I needed a k71-707-01 based on a previous article I read. I decided to check the label on the axle before I ordered the kit. I was surprised to find a label that read Forest River Surveyor-37 There is more info on the sticker if needed.

Thanks for that info, and we have actually run across this exact same thing before, with the sticker on a 2011 R-Pod 171 saying Forest River Surveyor 37. What you have is a 3,000 lb Torflex axle and you were correct about the lift kit you need, which is the Torflex Lift Kit # K71-707-01.

I have added a link to a video review for you to check out as well as a link to the installation instructions.
