Be careful lifting as the tent may not reach the ground any more. I thought about the same thing (same camper) but in the end with heavy springs and shocks have not had a drama so far.

G'day Scott,

Welcome to myswag, there may be enough slack in the tent if you are lucky to lift the trailer an inch or two, but if you are considering a spring over you will end up with more than two inches and the tent will not reach the ground.
