Don't flip the axle!!!

The axles are pre-stressed downwards on the ends to be level with the weight of the trailer.. If you flip it (them) your tires will never track correctly (cambered in I beleive).

If you want the trailer raised do it by putting the leaf springs on top of the axle by making new brackets/plates and welding them on the TOP of the axle. Leave the axle in the origional position.

ETA: pre and TOP
