Hey Mike,
In order to determine the correct kit we'll need to confirm which # torsion axle your Safari has. With the GWVR of your trailer being 3,500lbs the Torflex Lift Kit # K71-707-02 is most likely going to be the correct fit but I'd prefer to confirm that you have a #10 axle first. If you can find the axle tag, which should be on the tube facing the rear bumper we can use the information on it to confirm. If you want to send me a picture or just the serial the number I can verify what you have.

My trailer is a single axle and that kit is for a dual axle trailer so I don’t think it is correct. I will try and get a number off my axle when I am able. Thank you.
