We do have a couple options to lift your 2005 Keystone Cougar 5th wheel. The first would be to "flip" your axle using an over-under conversion kit. This moves your trailer's leaf springs to the top of your axle and will increase the height of your trailer the equivalent of the diameter of your axle plus the height of your leaf spring stack.
- Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-384-00 (For 2-3/8" diameter axles)
or
- Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00 (For 3" diameter axles)
From what I found it looks like your 2005 Keystone Cougar 5th wheel is a tandem axle, so you would need 2 of which ever kit you need.
If your axles are already flipped or you need additional height, you can use the Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit # RR23QX which is for tandem axles and will provide 1-1/4" or 2-1/4" of additional lift.
