    If it is a spring under setup, go spring over. hat should give about 4 or so inches.

    ive read into this quite a bit as i was planning on building a travel trailer.
    Spring over axle is cheapest route, jut need new perches and adjust shock mounts or install longer shocks and mount bump stops accordingly.

    i would go spring over if it is curently spring under as you will gain most ground clearance and lift.

    or you can do leaf springs and/or shackle for lift. but you have to keep in mind weight of the trailer when picking springs and spring length unless you plan to make new mounts on the frame.
