Re: Best Lift Kit
Jrod, for us to help... try to be a little more specific!
(It's hard to remember everyone's cart on the forum... and, I had to go back and find yours!) But, I remember now, a spindle lift won't help you! (no offense DS!) http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-c...-kit-size.html As for a lift... It all depends on how much money do you want to spend? $200 or $2000? Long Travel lifts are the best for the "extreme" user, and, can be a bit pricey! A-arm lifts are the most popular, easiest to install, and are affordable, for the "not too extreme" user! But, IMO... The best lift for the money is an All Sports DS Super Sport lift! They're not as "extreme" as Long Travels, but, more "extreme" then A-arms They come in 4, 6, & 7.5" sizes, Excellent quality, Easy to install, and the prices are right! (Was all of that too "extreme"???) Here's a few of pics of my buddies cart with a SS 7.5 lift! |

Can you explain "more extreme than A-Arm?"; Just in advantages / disadvantages....I wonder now if SS might have been better for me; Just received my A-ARM |

Re: Best Lift Kit
Don't quote me on this... But, it's to my understanding,
Long Travels have 6 to 10 inches of "articulation" depending on the size and brand! A-arms have about 2 inches of articulation The Super Sport has about 4 inches! (A happy medium between the two!) |

Re: Best Lift Kit
Oh... and my stock Z lift with a Jake's 3' spindle lift has maybe 1" of articulation!
