Question:
Ive got a lifted jeep, so my trailer will be too low. I need to lift it approximately 6inch off the axel. Its already got a flipped axel, so my question is this: should I install new springs with more leafs? Should I install longer hangers? Or can I put blocks in-between the axel and the springs? Thanks

Expert Reply:
You can raise your trailer about 2 more inches using the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and 2" Lift Kit - Single Axle # LC87120. Then you can also add longer hangers if you prefer. We do have long hangers like # 115919 which are the longest option we have. New springs or blocks is not a good option.
You will probably need to use a ball mount with a drop to allow you to tow level. I've attached a link to the options and have also attached an article to help you with measuring for fit.
