I can tell you how to go about determining if a Lippert Axle Riser Kit will fit your trailer, but these are universal fits, and we don't have any way of knowing what specific axles are on any year, make, or model of trailer. So in order to determine a fit, you'll have to take a look at your axle.

The axle will need to be a Lippert 3,500 lb torsion axle, and it will need to be square shaped. The shape you will be able to see visibly and there should be a tag or sticker on the axle itself that has the manufacturer and capacity.

Once you know that you will be able to determine the fit of the Axle Riser Kit - Single Square Torsion Axle # LC382741.
