Yes, you can use a Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00 like you referenced to gain a little ground clearance. This product will allow you to move the axles of your trailer from above the leaf springs to below the leaf springs which will give you additional ground clearance.

As long as you have a 3 inch round axle this product would work well for you. 3 inch axles are primarily used on 6,000 lb and 7,200 lb axles.
