Thanks! Let me know if you have any questions

Those welds hurt my soul.

I don’t disagree with you. The instructions on the kit say to do tac welds on it. I called them just to make sure that we should run a full beard on it and they said no just tack weld it.

How not to weld.

I hope you took a welding class after that!

Haha! Well through some trail riding and long hauls no issues! Also the kit said it was not necessary to tac weld. But yes, to answer your question my welding has gotten better

I watched your video on the tire upgrade as well. Have you had any issues with the wheel spacer/adapters? Thinking about installing spacers to get additional clearance for sidewall for larger tires on my pop up.

No issues at all. Work perfect. These tires have no rubbing. Just after trips do the maintenance to check amd see if the work lose. I have not any come loosen yet.

FYI to anyone watching this video. Those are stabilizer jacks. Not lifting jacks. Funny ever support the entire weight of any camper or training only using those

Yes stabilization jacks for a camper. 5000lb rating each- so 20k rating al around on a max 2k lb camper… I think it will hold. Here a link to the jacks. www.amazon.com/Trailer-Stabilizer-Leveling-Scissor-5000lbs/dp/B084L5JC7M/ref=asc_df_B084L5JC7M/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=642169458874&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=10617851058638264337&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=m&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9010904&hvtargid=pla-1643783099221&psc=1&gclid=CjwKCAjw9pGjBhB-EiwAa5jl3Br32vwUs2JglUa28z9k1pWwfUj7l4AB66eBAlGibSgZdCXRsMTHChoCn3EQAvD_BwE

Great step by step video for the Dexter kit. I'm looking to do the same lift on my trailer this summer. About how long did the entire process take?

@ClintR2

Few hrs. With the right tools makes it go pretty quickly.

Is there a shock kit for this? I think the leaf spring is just way too bouncy.

Just curious, can you just rotate the axel to where the original perches are on the top instead of the bottom?

@ClintR2

No, There is an arch on the axle. The arch helps with the weight of the trailer. Need to keep same arch.

Hi Clint awesome video. I have the same trailer and doing this same lift very soon. You said your put 215-70-15 on it? Do you know if they were 15x5 or 15x6. Were they even close to rubbing?

@ClintR2

I am in the process of putting them on. Had to get wheel adapters you make these rims fits. Axel is 5x4.5 bolt pattern.-jeep wills will fit.(example 90s Cherokee’s) They are a 1 inch adapter. The adapters are coming in next week. Once on I will update you. The wheels are bassets 15x7 with 3 inch backspacing. Tried 235/75/15 and they fit but not much room. I wanted a little wheel travel. One thing I will update forsure is shocks. I’ll make a video on wheels and tires

So I have 5 on 4.5 wheels. 15x6 wheels. I’m planning on putting on 205-70-15. Do you think I’ll have clearance issues?

@ClintR2

3 жыл бұрын

You should not have any clearance issues at all. Resin for shocks is to help dampen the ride a little bit. Not bouncy at all. We take ours on a fair amount of forest service roads and off-road some and this will help with the load on the springs and make a better ride

@ClintR2

Sorry just saw this. In this pic- 13 inch rims. I upgraded to 15s

I just got a 2019 Rockwood Freedom 1940LTD and wanna do this so it works with my lifted 4Runner. Did you end up getting bigger tires? How does it to now?

@ClintR2

I have some tires on rims but have not made the change yet. Honestly so far for the light gravel trails they are preforming great. However with the bigger tires it would do better. I also need to make some blocks for the stabilizers if I go an bigger.

I currently 185/80r13 I have some Bassett wheels and the tires Laying around the house. They were on a project I was working on and I upgraded the tire size and wheels and had these. Only about 5000 miles on them. Please run a Subaru rim. I’m just going to get some adapters and put these rims and tires on. Should make a massive difference

Agreed. I usually start with a 4 way then finish with torque wrench. Thanks for pointing out.

Is that a universal kit, or do you have to buy one for your exact camper?
