Question:

Hi I have a 2017 KZ Sportsman 150bh that I’d like a lift kit for. The axle is sits on top of the leaf springs. Looks like you have kits but I wasn’t sure of fitment. The 1.88” kit looks about right. Not sure if you have others. Can you please let me know which part numbers fit? Thanks

Since your axle still sits above your leaf springs you would actually want to start but "flipping the axle". I couldn't find what axle your 2017 KZ Sportsman 150bh has, but this is easy enough to figure out by taking a measurement of your trailer axles diameter. If it is a 2-3/8" Round Axle then you would want the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-384-00. If it is a 3" Round Axle then you would want the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00.

What this does is move your trailer's leaf springs to the top of your axle and lifts your trailer approximately the same amount as your axle's diameter plus the height of the leaf spring pack, so you'll be getting at least a few inches of added height.

If you did that and still wanted some more height, then you would use the Lippert Components Standard Axle Lift Kit # LC425750 to provide an additional 1.88" of lift.
