Default Just got the parts in today

I want to thank Wicked Carts for working to fix a problem with my lift kit was was short a few key pieces.
Here is what I got done tonight with the help of my daughter that came in town for the weekend.
I put new shocks, and new heavy duty rear springs under the back end of the cart. We installed the lift kit that I got from Wicked Carts and got the new tires and wheels (also from Wicked) on.
The cart has a lean to the drivers side. I set the air pressure to 14 lbs on both rear tires. With all the new parts under the rear I am not sure if I have a problem or not. I guess I will wait til I get the lift under the front end tomorrow before panic sets in.
I also could not push the brake peddle down after the lift was installed. I am guessing I need to adjust the brake tension wheel on the rear drums...

Its common for the drivers side springs to sag with age. If you havent replaced the front springs you could try and swap springs from side to side and allow springs to settle in. It will make passenger side lower but it will level off soon.

thanks Mec
The springs under the rear are new OEM from EZGO, but I also have heavy duty springs (also OEM from EZGO) coming for the front.

The new springs should solve your sag problem, if not recheck your suspension for too tight or frozen items.

Ok, I got both ends up now and after riding around the house a couple of time, it does not lean as bad as it did. I am hoping it will settle in and straighten up with a little time (and the new front springs).

Thanks for the heads up from Wicked on the brake cable bracket, that did the trick.
I started on the battery box for the back (under the bed) but will have to quit for the day. Hope to finish all that and the #2 wires tomorrow.

Here are some pictures after the lift and tires.
