Default RHOX A-Arm vs Jake's Spindle?

I purchased an 03 Yamaha G22 Gasser that has a 3" Jake's spindle lift. It needs new tires so I want to upgrade to a 6" lift. I know Jakes is the name of quality for yammis but I am just not sure how thrilled I am with the geometry of spindle lifts, and I cannot find much info on the RHOX BMF Kits. My cart will primarily be used around my farm and campground, no big offroading but it does haul my wife and 3 kids.

I would love a Jakes long arm kit but that is not currently in the budget. So my real questions is would the RHOX BMF A-Arm kit be better than the 6" Jake's spindle kit?

Why not get the Jake's Double A arm kit it's only $55 more than the spindle kit and great quality.

Does anyone have any experience with the RHOX BMF kits? Options for the G22 are so very limited and feedback on this kit is almost non existant.

I haven't heard anything bad about Rhox lift kits, but I haven't heard anything good about them either!

However... I found this lift on Cart Parts Plus website, (BGW's longtime sponsor)
It's an All Sports lift, and usually very good quality!

Thanks lockman. I have generally heard good things about All Sports, all asside from the one lengthy install/review thread on here about this kit on a G22 and they didn't seem too happy with it. But just like the RHOX, reviews are so limited on the G22. The more I look the more tempted I am to wait and save up for the Jakes Long Travel, I am just not sure using it primarily in a campground if I will ever really benefit from it.

Thanks for the input Miker. I am not concerned about aesthetics really, as I will either be painting or rubberizing the underbody anyways. But I do care about the build quality / strength. So if they are pretty beefy then I don't see how they couldn't be superior to a spindle lift.

The BMF lifts are good, MUCH better than a spindle!

Good to hear BigBlockMan! Now irronicly I was looking to get ready to purchase a BMF from the good reviews you gentleman have had and saw on Jason's site how cheap the Jake's long arm kits dropped. So of course now I am conflicted to get the BMF or if the extra $260 is worth the Long Travel kit. decisions decisions!
