Lift kit for off road use
What a-arm or long travel lift kit is recommended for a cart that will actually be used off-road? Any input on this kit: Everythingcarts.com ? Anyone have any dealings with this vendor?
Looking to outfit my new to me '01 C.C. 48v. |

Re: Lift kit for off road use
I have a strech plastics long travel A-arm and it has performed very good. Offroad is all I do. Desert, trail and mtn riding and it has done extreemly well. You will also want a long travel 3-link rear susp. Good luck.

Re: Lift kit for off road use
I have the older AllSports &" dual a-arm kit on my G9- I dont recommend for off road.
I have the Jakes long travel on my G16 and it is pretty good in the off road sessions that I have done with it so far. Cant speak to the Terra Toys or Stretch Plastics. The Terra Toys look like it is the heaviest duty of all the kits. |

Re: Lift kit for off road use
Thanks for the input. Have had several recommendations for the Jake's kit. That is the most likely choice for me, little pricey but I would rather have it done right and safely than cut corners trying to be cheap on things that count.

Re: Lift kit for off road use
The terra toys is a little heavier but look where they mount the shock, on the upper a-arm. The strech kit is mounted to the lower a-arm like a quad, much more effective I think. Just my $.02.
