Need to raise the rear height.

Just got back from the Power Tour, pulled a teardrop trailer the whole way. Had no problems but would like to raise the height of the rear some, any ideas would be welcomed. Oh, what a great trip, there were a few of us wagons that did the long haul. Meet one guy from Texas who hit a deer, did some repairs and keep going. He had a cool wagon.

Do you have air bags?

As Nick says, Air Lift air bags would be the easiest.

It can't have been Mike as he'd have posted about it, remarked how traumatized he is about still picking deer hair out of the headlights and we'd also have 86 pictures (JK mike)

My suggestion is MOOG Coil Spring CC623 and Gabriel Load Carrier shocks #43049. I recently replaced my coil springs with these and gained 1 1/2" inches in height from the stock springs. The load carrier shocks are designed for towing and heavy loads and also provide a bit of lift in the rear.

Justin LMAO about Mike and you sure nailed it about How he would handle it.Probably would
need therapy to get thru it if he had hit a deer.
Still LMAO

I bought a parts car that had heavy duty rear coils and I gained about 2 inches in the back which gives the car a bit of a rake empty, but if you load it up or trailer it's nice and level.

Air bags or shocks would be easy but if you are towing the springs would be better IMO.

Sorry don't know the manufacturer of the springs but I know there is a tag on 'em and if interested will climb under there and get it for you.

No more pics for guys!!!!

Just a little teasing Mike but you have to admit it was funny.You hit a deer with your wagon and you would go crazy getting it fixed!

Oh you know I'd be crying!

Yea as many deer as we have around here I would be sick.Until the feds allowed bow hunting
on park service grounds,we were having a deer strike every nite.The park service just ignored everybody until a young married couple were killed in an accident.At dusk in the open areas
on the tour road there would be hundreds of deer as far as you could see.Couldnt grow anything in your yard because they would be here all day if you didnt have dogs.They are not
as dumb as people think either.In our neighborhood of 15 homes,they knew which houses
had dogs and stayed away.
