Great job Daryl looking good.
if anyone is thinking of doing this conversion kit ?..do not think long and hard ..do it !!. i just installed this very same kit on my 18 ft camper, and it worked out just great. i already bent a stabilizer jack on one corner ( replacing those as well ), and i got plenty of lift. i was very lucky i did not rip the septic line off ?..now i will not have any issues what so ever. this kit also lets me bring my WDH torsion bars up higher, they were really close to the ground. my camper came with 14 inch tires ( these will get replaced with larger tires later ), and this alone had my camper very low to the ground to start with. this dexter conversion kit solved all my problems..buy it , you will not regret it !.
This is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you for sharing....
nice job, Daryl
I had to watch this again it is a good video with good information
Very helpful!
Clean job , thanx 👍
Your camper is going to be sittin pretty after you load it,,its going to be a nice ride too.
I have learned to ALWAYS lock-Tight the U-Bolt nuts. Specially on after market stuff. If you decide not to do that just make sure you check them after every trip. Lookin Good!
Great job it looks better
I bought this exact same kit and I'm installing now. I had to take a break and look this up because as I took everything apart, I thought "why cant I just flip the axle and use the factory perch and hardware?" Thanks for answering my question in the first 2 min of your video. I was unaware of the bow in the axle.
I had no Idea about the perch good to know.
I bought one from them for 150$. I got the 95/78 axle
Good job Daryl. Nice height for off road camping. PS. Think you planted a seed with Kevin R. to build a new camper. LOL
Now DexterI recommends welding the brackets on, but i see you haven't. I have the same kit. My problem is getting the axil over to a welding shop to get them welded. I only have a Wrangler JK 2 door. I suppose i could mount them on the trailer then tow it the welding shop. From your video it looks like the welder could still get to the brackets to weld them I m gong to be driving the Alaska hwy as soon as this bloody lockdown is over, if it ever is, so a little extra strength on that rough road wouldn't hurt
Do you think it compromises the integrity of the spring by doing this?
That height is just right
The perch it have to be welded to the axle?
My trailer axle is 2 3/8" but rhe leafs are 2inch wide would this kit work?
im no spring expert but couldn't you add another spring 1 it will stiffen up the axle and fender travel... and the 1000 + trailer, wouldn't bounce as much.... what do I win........
