Thoughts on enclosed trailer mods and upgrades

How high did it lift yours? I want to do mine so I can get 16” wheels and better tires in there. 

5 or 6 inches - if you go under your trailer and measure this distance (blue line) - you'll see more or less what it will end up being for your trailer.

p.s - some people just "flip" their axels and not buy the kit I posted - from what I've found out in doing this for the first time - your axels have an engineered bow in them - if you just flip them you are essentially ruining the integrity of the axle as that bow is not bowed in the incorrect direction. There's 2 main axle sizes, make sure you get the correct kit.

Not the best comparison photo's - but here are some before and after...i haven't towed it yet with my motorhome - I did the flip a few months back.

I was worried it was going to look stupid, not that it matters, but still...It doesn't look that bad and I'm happy with it.  I don't bottom out when leaving my street (back corner would drag) - and am hoping if I hit soft sand it will not be what drags me down.

I've been stuck once in my motorhome (Gordon's) - and the trailer was dragging - if it wasn't dragging it,  I most likely would have made it through the soft patch as I was only 10ft from hard pack. Well worth the 200 bucks and time in my opinion...

One potential issue is if you double as a car hauler and tow lowered cars - cars will bottom out easier given the ramp is a bit steeper.
