The axles are often times flipped on the trailer depending on the size of the lift. Essentially going from a spring under axle to a spring over.

I have seen some trailers that have lifts on them.I wouldn't want that. think it would be unstable at 10k lbs unloaded .
Somethings I like that are top heavy and its not a trailer:angel:

Do you have issues when its real windy.I was.concerned more safety

no not all i went up from a 235 tire to a 31 toyo mt tire with a 11 in wheel so the tire is 2 in wider and works great i cant tell much difference from when both were stock

ony pic i got but this was with 4 in blocks and the stock 235 tires hope it gives you idea. it would been perfect with 6 in lift

 

[2006coalroller]

oh ya good rule of thumb keep 6 in or more from trailer to bed rail

I'm confused. You said you had a 37 inch tire 9" lift.
But you went from a235 to. 31 that gave you enough to be stock height.Do you still have the. 5-6 inch clearance on the bed rail
