Lift kit question
I had a rhox 3 inch lift kit installed, with 10X 20 tires.
The front wheels seem to be toeing in on the top a little, I concerned that my tires will wear uneven. Is there a way to straighten the toe issue ? I think it may be unfixable.... I will post a pic tomorrow Thanks |

Re: Lift kit question
. . . aren't the Rhox units adjustable for toe and camber?

You need to park your cart with the steering wheel straight. Then loosen the jam nut on the steering rod ends, then loosen the steering rod bolt and make one turn out on each of them. Then reinstall the rod ends and you will see that the top of the wheel is not nearly out as much. This is because of the design of the rhox drop spindles. As you toe them out more the wheel sits flatter. So you will have to play around with it to find the happy balance between being towed out and being cambered out. Hope that makes sense. |

Re: Lift kit question
what is the difference between toe out and camber out ?
Is this a easy process, I don't even know what a jam nut is.. Is this something I should attempt, Im pretty mechanically inclined but new to the cart thing.... |

Camber is the angle your wheel is at from top to bottom, and toe in/ out is the wheel angle from front to back( best way I could think of explaining it) |
