Hey Christopher,

Does your Lantern have a leaf spring suspension or torsion axle suspension? If you have a leaf spring suspension and your axle sits above the leaf springs then you can use an over-under-conversion kit # K71-384-00 (2-3/8" diameter axles) or # K71-385-00 (3" diameter axles).

If you have a torsion axle setup we'll need to take a look at the axle tag sticker to identify the axle to pick out the correct lift kit. Based on the weight of your trailer you likely have a #10 Torflex axle and would need part # K71-707-01, but we'd still need to confirm.

My coleman 17B has leaf springs and 3” single axle that sits on top of the leaf springs, will your kit K71-385-00 3” diameter fit and im able to get a small lift on it?

@Chris The Dexter Trailer Springs Over-Under Conversion Kit # K71-385-00 would be the correct fit based on what you have. Since you're moving the leaf springs to the top of the axle the height of the trailer body is going to increase by the diameter of the axle (3") plus the height of the spring stack (the thickness of the leafs at the center).
