Lift a trailer?

[Canada17]

Hi everyone, I have a 12' 1975 Cygnet Travel tRailer that I use for camping, but I would like it to be able to go on some rougher roads than it currently can with its 4inch clearance. Anyone ever lifted a trailer? Know how? Thanks!

you may be able to run the springs on top of the axle

several ways,

Leaf spring add ons, flipping axels depends on what you want....

dont forget they start to get top heavy though.......

I had a travel trailer once that came with leaf over vs under as an option. if you leave over your springs you'll probably get about three to four inches of lift. You need to weld on new perches, however, as trailer axles have a bow to them.
After you lift it you may want to widen it wtih wider tires or spacers to prevent it from getting too tip heavy.
