Axle lift for x19h

[mass-hole]

I had to slightly modify the DXF files to fit my 2012 JayFeather X213, there was a few issues.

1. The lower holes were not quite far enough apart and I could barely get both bolts through. I added another 1/8" distance between the holes


2. The notch at the upper portion of the vertical cut was not big enough to clear the welds around the vertical web on the axle bracket so I gave it a bit more clearance so that the plate would clamp tight down to the face of the axle bracket.


3. The horizontal slot that accepts the top part of the axle bracket that sticks out horizontally was not large enough to fit the curved bend in the bracket. At least on my axle, this was not just a 90* bend but probably has a 1/2" radius.

The other modification I made was to shift the lower mounting holes to move the axles forward and back 3/4" each(on a two axle trailer), spreading the axles 1.5". What this did was gave me enough room to run a 30" tire. Right now I am limited to about 28.5" max because of how close the hubs are.


So between the 3" lift from these brackets and moving from 185/80R13 to 225/75R15's i will gain nearly 5" of clearance. There are 235/75R15's as well but they are considerably more expensive for only a small diameter increase.

If needed, how would I be able to get those mods to a dfx design, is this something I can learn on my own or would a shop be able to adjust? Attaching pics of mine.

Rambo2 were you able to make these up for your van? I have the same setup and trying to work it out on mine now.

Scott, would you forward me a copy of the 2 files that you have?
I have a guy to cut them for me.
I would really appreciate it.
Thanks Greg
