After installing the 33" tires on the Jeep, the Bantam looked low when connected behind the Jeep.
The bantam has 31" tires, about 1" of clearance bewteen the tire and fender, and I'm not planning on changing them out anytime soon.
So....I yanked the flat trailer springs out and had them re-arched, adding 2.5 inches to the arch.
Re-installed the springs, and that gave me about 4" of lift, which now makes the trailer sit nice and level behind the Jeep.
Also gives me some extra clearance for the water tank under the trailer.

Nice! I am going to have to do the same thing to my M416, sits a little low behind the 2A.

That is a sweet setup you've got there. I'd be interested in seeing a pic of the pair together, if you have any.
