Increasing TT height

[Rojast04]

Just looking for some suggestions to ponder on. I have 2017 Aspen Trail 2710BH. Would like add some height to it, for ground clearance. (Pulling in and out of the driveway and am also looking to maybe add a fabricated shelf/cargo/bike rack to the rear end.) Any and all suggestions are welcomed and Greatly appreciated!

new tires would work. If you still have the china bombs on there, it would work to add an inch or two since those tires are different dimensions than an american tire with the same specs. I changed mine and gained about an inch and a half. In my uneducated opinion, if you go too high, you may have stability issues. Aaron may know.

Thanks for that! I wanted to at least get a year or two out of them.
, It is time to upgrade I suppose.

Re-do the driveway?

That unit looks like it already has some decent ground clearance compared to the low riding models that I search out.

There are quite a few options to raise the ride height, just be aware that it WILL change the center of gravity and the handling characteristics.

Larger aka taller tires is definitely and option that can gain you a quick couple of inches. Even consider going up a wheel size.

Are the springs currently mounted on the top or bottom of the axles? If they are on the bottom of the axles you can "flip" the axles and put the springs on top, I believe etrailer.com has the necessary hardware. This is a pretty common mod with the popup crowd.
