lifted club car (please help)
I installed a homemade lift on my club car ds, 6" z lift in front and flipped axle with blocks in the rear. The problem im having is when i go offroad the front of the engine cradle falls out of the bracket on the frame, I was wondering if anyone has experienced this problem and what i need to do secure it.
Thanks in advance |

The front snubber and mount needs to be rotated down (IMO) when you go 6" or more on a CC lift.
There is a picture on here that shows the bracket assy being relocated below stock. That also drops the engine back closer to stock level as well. I just cant find the picture again. |

Re: lifted club car (please help)
the piece of channel came with the engine kit it is three inches i just measured and it it 3 5/8 from the stock resting plate to the new resting plate as you can see in the pics i still have more adjusting to do cause it still doesn't sit down all the way yet. you can see the gap between new one and the old one i had to drop it further down due to the s style of the original piece so i could be moved further forward
