There's two places you can find the axle info typically. Up on the VIN plate the info should be listed there as well as on a sticker on the axle tube itself. With that said we've had customers with similar Bambi Sport 22 foot models who have told us that they had the Number 11 axle and the correct lift kit was the # K71-724-02.

Hey Bryan, that's a good question. The pricing can definitely be misleading, but I wouldn't use it to judge the quality of the tire. A lot of that comes down to promotions, inventory, and whether you're looking at a tire by itself or…
