Based on my research it looks like your 2017 Airstream 19 Flying Cloud is equipped with a #11 Dexter Torflex Axle. I do recommend verifying this by checking the main tag/sticker on the axle itself.

For this axle type we have the Torflex Lift Kit # K71-724-02 that will raise the trailer frame by 2-7/8 inches. Just note that this kit is for a tandem axle setup so you will have an extra set of blocks. We do not currently have this available as a single axle kit.

I have attached a short video review along with the written install instructions that you can check out as well.
