Ok, thanks - Unfortunately, it's been raining like all get out in my area for the past 2-3 days straight so I have not been able to work on my rig much at all, unfortunately. I'm hoping it dries out some by sunday so I can get under it, see what I have and get it jacked and get this project started.
I do have a pair of dial calipers that I think will open up at least 3-4" so I will use those to get an exact measurement and then go from there.
I decided I will hitch up to my truck, then jack each side a little at a time, placing cribbing/supports and jack stands as I go up until I get it where I want it, then once I have it at the final height and blocked securly, I'll lower the trailer crank-down stabilizers just for extra security. I figure that will make it safe to work under.
One other question, if I measure and confirm I have 2-1/2" diameter axles, would the 2-3/8" re-location kit work?
Thanks again for all the helpful thoughts and replies I appreciate everyone taking the time to offer suggestions and thoughts.
