I believe the issue regarding why a 2017 Winnebago Micro Minnie can't have its axle flipped is because it has torsion axles, which do require what are essentially spacers but are called a lift kit.

The correct lift kit is going to depend on your specific axle; based on my research it looks like your '17 Minnie has a pair of 3,500 lb axles, though we aren't privy to the manufacturer, which is important.

So if you have a #10 Torflex axle, which is manufactured by Dexter you need the Torflex Lift Kit - Tandem Axle # K71-707-02.

If you have a square torsion axle you will need two of the Axle Riser Kit # LC382741.

To find out the manufacturer you will need to contact with your Winnebago with your VIN and they will be able to tell you exactly the axle you have.
