EZGO Jakes Lift Kit Bump Steer
Drove my cart with 4 people on it today. Needless to say the bump steer is too much with the factory lift. Cart is uncontrollable over 14 mph. After hitting a bump very dangerous to steer. I'm going to remove it and install the jakes long travel lift kit. Will this help the bump steer? Anyone have one of these kits that can give me advice?

Anyone have an opinion on the jakes lift kit? Does it steer well?

One reason I don't have a back seat, not much weight on the front wheels with 2 extra people, just gota be careful.

Re: EZGO Jakes Lift Kit Bump Steer
I agree. I removed the lift and going with a long travel. Wasn't satisfied with the lift to start with and that just put the icing on the cake. Do you have a long travel?

Nope, just a dropped axle lift.

Re: EZGO Jakes Lift Kit Bump Steer
I have a Jake's LT lift on my TXT and we've had 4 riders all summer without any bump steer. Looks like we have similar looking carts :)

Re: EZGO Jakes Lift Kit Bump Steer
Nice cart!! Can't go wrong with the orange!!
I went ahead and went with the Allsports as per a recommendation from Revolution Golf Cars. The kit looks and sounds very nice. I hope to have it next week, it takes allsports 2 weeks to ship as they are built to order. I think both the Jakes and Allsports are both nice. If I had a newer cart with the 4 bolt column and rack and pinion I probably would have went with Jakes. The Allsports comes with a club car precedent steering box and a 4 bolt column to upgrade! |
