94 Carryall 1 lift/wheel/tire combo question

kimmer71

Need some help from the experts in lift kits. I feel like I may have backed myself into a corner by being a newbe.

I have purchased four new 20x10x8 Carlisle Turfmaster tires and sure enough discovered that they will not work with the stock (centered) wheels I have. Also, looks like I need to lift the cart slightly for appropriate suspension travel clearance. One of the new tires came on an offset wheel which appears to work in the back and almost works in the front (hits the frame end when turned)

I'm interested in an Allsports A-arm lift (3"-4") but the kits are listing 10" wheel minimum size. I'm about to order 4 new 8" offset steel wheels but hate to throw good money after bad.

Can I stick with the 8" (offset) wheels and tires and get a decent lift kit for this rig or do I have to go with a different 10" wheel tire package. I think I could put a Jakes spindle lift on it but prefer an a-arm assembly if possible.

Hey Kim, the 10" rims are recommended to insure rim/ frame clearance and may or may not be neccessary on the carryall. Given what you are already finding out on your cart I think your best, cheapest route is to sell off your 8" set and buy offset 10" wheel/ tire combo.

An A Arm suspension is definitly a better riding system.... Call the venders in Question and get the answer from them ....

I spoke with Jason at EC this afternoon about several of the Allsports lifts. For an A-arm lift, you need a minimum of a 10" offset wheel. He thought I could probably get by with the 6" spindle lift and 8" offset wheels but...I like to try to do things right the 1st time. At a minimum, I want to install the A-arm so...plan "B" goes into action.

Got 4 new 20x10x8 carslile turfmaster tires for sale. I'll post them in the "for sale" section.
