Recommended Lift Kit for a 3" Diameter Suretrac Axle
Updated 02/03/2026 | Published 06/26/2024
Question:
I have purchased a new trailer that is just too darn low to the ground. This kit looks perfect, other than my axles are Suretrac 5200 W/Ebrake. I did measure them at 3. It sure looks like they would work, just dont have any real knowledge between Dexter and Suretrac. Thank you for your help. marc Attached is a picture of my Axle Tag

Thanks for the picture Marc! So long as your Suretrac axle is 3" in diameter the Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit item # K71-385-00 will work just fine with it. This kit works by moving your axle below your springs and gives you a lift equivalent to your axles thickness, which in your case would be 3".

Hey Marc, how did the over-under conversion kit work out with your Suretrac axles? It sounds like the 3-inch diameter should have been a good match. Sharing how it turned out could help others with the same axle setup.
