Default Raising the rear

I have a stock EZ GO 11.5HP gas cart that I'm using to access my boat dock via a very steep path. I just installed the rear facing seat and now the rear of the cart is approx 2" lower than the front. I made new shackles for the rear leaf, but the axle won't drop that low because the shocks are too short in length. Does anyone have an easy way to extend the shocks 2"?

Cool Re: Raising the rear

You might be able to get some shock extensions at your local auto parts store. I've used them in the past on old cars I've had.

How did adding a seat lower the rear end?

Do you mean when people are on the seat? If so, HD springs

I assume the weight of the rear facing seat dropped the rear. It's obvious looking at the cart from the side that the rear is about 2" lower. I'll try the shock extension idea and see if it will allow me to raise it this amount.
