Re: help with 3 wheel lift
The three wheelers are dangerous at stock height. That's why they are not made anymore. If it were raised above stock height, it would flip very easily.
You may want to look into springs and shocks to get it back to where it belongs...or,. possibly an inch or so up.? Some graft a 2 wheel steering system and then lift them. I haven't seen a 3 wheel lift but, that doesn't mean it's not been done. Welcome to the forum PAULMONT1719 |

Re: help with 3 wheel lift
Also you prb could convert the front end over to a 4 wheel... I'm sure with a little work you could sweet talk someone out of the old front end that put a long travel setup on it....
