Dealer installed lift kit?

Do any Airstream Dealers install trailer lift kits? The dealer in my area doesn't.

I had the "Dexter Axle" lift kit installed at the AS dealer in Tucson, AZ. I supplied the lift kit which I ordered online. This makes boondocking and our driveway approach much less stressful. Can't tell a difference in towing or fuel mileage. I would go ahead and get the kit then when your traveling you can call dealers in your area. It's not rocket science. If you have a good mechanic you trust they could do it. Just make sure you put the jack and jack stands exactly where Airstream recommends. Go to search for video of install.

I was told no by Colonial Airstream. Considering doing it myself over the winter. I have to hit my driveway just right in order not to drag the rear. Dragging a makeshift ramp down to the bottom of the driveway is getting old.
