Dexter Axle, the leading manufacturer of trailer axles and trailer brakes for over 50 years, announces the release of a lift kit option for select Torflex axles. The lift kit will raise your trailer 2.63".

Easy Install
Great price and service. Genuine Dexter components. Turn around after ordering was fast. Packaging was the best I’ve seen in a long time. Grade 8 hardware and a good powder-coat finish. Instructions are concise and have pictures for every step. They give the correct torque settings. Nuts are locking so they must go on the correct direction. It took me a little over an hour for the install. I put it on my teardrop trailer that I pull with my TJ Wrangler and the extra height gives better offroad clearance and I can now stand straight up under the rear hatch. Should have done it sooner.

Easy to install
This was easy to install but make sure you look at the nuts as they are a locking nut, not mismatched hardware like other reviews state. To of the flats on the nuts have serrations to indicate the locking feature side of the nut. Very easy to overlook and not called out in the instructions.

product hardware
The Dexter spacers where exactly what we needed. However, the hardware that came with the spacers was incorrectly matched. the bolts and nuts were not compatible with each other. the nut would go on but for only a few turns then bind up. I had to go to HomeDepot to get the correct nuts to match the bolt you shipped. Not very pleased with the additional cost and irritation. Bob Caldwell
