Lifting 5th Wheel Trailer With Leaf Springs Already on Top of Axles

Published 10/27/2023

Question:

I have a keystone cougar 5th wheel that tires rub underneath. I had springs replaced under warrant but they still rub. Have had several blow outs. Put sheet metal underneath and still see tire marks. Springs are on top of 4400 lb axle 6 lug wheels. I would like to raise the 5th wheel 2. Thinking of putting 2 block under springs 4 each with longer ubolts. Can you help with that?

We don't have spacers blocks, but we do have an option that will give you up to 2-1/4 inches of added height. It is called the Correct Track:

- Correct Track Trailer Alignment and Lift Kit - Tandem Axle # RR23QX

This kit does require at least 2-5/8" from the I-beam to the spring mounting hole on your hanger, and works with 3" wide x 3-3/4" tall hangers or 3" wide x 5" tall hangers. I have added a link below to the installation instructions as well if you'd like to take a look.
