DIY CC lift

backwoodsbuggy247 · 05-09-2010, 07:23 PM

Does anyone on here have some suggestions on how to make a small(1" or 2" maybe 3") lift on a 06 CC DS? I have future plans 2 do a 8" lift and 25" tires but untill I can save up an extra $1000 I wanted to try and make a small lift myself (tired of having a stock looking cart HAHA) I was just wonderin if anybody had done this already or have any suggestions for a small Do It Yourself lift kit? any help would be appericated! Thanks

When I got my EZGO it had a backyard lift on it. It worked well for the 2 years I used it and finally bought a long travel. Only costs time and small piece of scrap metal. Cut the ends off your axle weld in a piece of scrap and weld ends back on. Flip the rear. Of course that is if the CC is made similar to an EZGO. I don't know much about the CCs. Maybe help with an idea though.

Your quick Chuddly! You added them before I could!

thanks....i prefer to put my gussets below centerline of the wheel so the pry is still pushing the gusset up into the axel thus making it a bit stronger

I don't believe that EZGO method works on CC's. Mine is an '05. I used 1/4 wall 2x2 tubing for a block between the front leaf and the frame, got longer bolts, did an alignment and called it a day. I have an 1/4" aluminum plate that I'll probably add as well, (I'm waiting for funds for a 6" lift myself). I don't have a pic now, as I'm at work.
I can shoot one tonight and add to the post when I get home though.

Scrap, whats going on? Did you get that problem fixed with the throttle? Id like to see that lift you did so I can look into it for my cart. Lemmme know when your off. My shift changed from weekends off to working 4-10s, sunday - wednesday. So I have thursday - saturdays off until????

I will get them up soon, I promise. I'll get a few shot's tonight when I get home and post them tonight or tomorrow morning.

Black Death, my hours changed again, I have one day off a week now......on 12's! I haven't fixed it yet, been too busy with the other stuff life throws at you. I have ordered and recieved my new tires, and am about 80% done with my prerunner front bumper I only started all this a month ago!

We need to hang out sometime, if we ever have any time off.
