While we were going over repairs to be done, I noticed a sign offering a lift for TTS, runs about $400. I talked to them about it and went for it based on the fact that I've already bent the back frame on the left once, and broke off the caster on the other side when I bottomed out while towing. They basically flip the axle, putting the saddle and springs that were on the under side of the axle on top, giving it roughly 4" of lift.
Has anyone else ever done this? I talked to the technician and he said that while it does raise the center of gravity a little, it shouldn't cause any problems. He did acknowledge that it now sits very low, not sure why they made it that way. It's a Jayco Qwest 324G
Seems like most all of them I see here in AZ are lifted. My friend has a 32 footer and it's lifted.
