Will Torflex Lift Kit Fit On 2012 Airstream Flying Cloud Bambi Travel Trailer?  

Updated 09/22/2026 | Published 09/19/2026

Question:

I just bought a 2012 20 ft Airstream Flying Cloud Bambi and Id like to lift it. Its a single axle, and Im pretty sure that I have a Dexter 11 Torflex Axle, but thought Id confirm with you before ordering. Ive attached a couple of pics of the axle labels. Thanks in advance for your help! Thanks! Tim

Hey Tim, yes you do have the Dexter Torflex #11 axle on your 2012 Airstream Flying Cloud Bambi. Good job on the research and thanks for adding those pics!

The Torflex Lift Kit - Single Axle - 2-7/8" Lift # DX56CR will work as long as your factory bracket there on the axle tube is not taller than 3". I don't think it will be since that is not real common, but it doesn't hurt to measure and verify since that is a disclaimer Dexter puts out. See the attached picture on where you should measure.

This spacer will give you just under 3" of lift, so your trailer tongue and everything above the frame will be lifted as well. Is this so that you can tow better with a lifted truck, or what was the reason for the lift kit, Tim?

Thanks for confirming Andrew. I actually measured the bolt distance as well and confirmed the 9.5" bolt spacing just to be sure. I just want the lift kit for added clearance for our new Airstream, as we frequently camp off the grid and travel down some rough roads.

@TimN Nice, that should work well for you then! Let me know how it looks after getting it installed! Those RVs are super awesome.
