Is all sports lift same as stens all sport

Waverider969 · 07-13-2013, 04:56 PM

In my search for a good deal on an All Sports A-arm 6" lift kit for my 94 DS
I keep seeing a kit as low as $330 on EBay and amazon but it says "Stens" along with "All Sports" and it looks different than other All Sports kits. Any ideas.

Here is a link to picture of kit I see discounted On Some sites claiming its All Sports brand.

Doesn't "look" like an A.S. lift but....you never know. Looks like a competitors lift with A.S. name on the image. I think I'd send A.S. an email with the pic and ask them....of coarse, you could get a completely different looking product in the box.

(I think I vaguely remember someone telling me there were some non-A.S products with the A.S name on them.....not cool no matter who you are.)

Yea something odd going on there. .It did't look like all sport kit to me too but I thought perhaps its just the picture.

That is a Chinese lift kit, I bought one off Ebay for my cart for the time being until I can do an atv front end. They're ok, not the highest quality but did bolt up easily...

Really you paid that much for a Chinese lift kit? It seems for $30'more they have the All Sports kit that looks like the real thing.
I actually saw a 6" A-arm lift from Trademark for like $199. That one is what I would think be one to get to tie over till something better. But then again another hundred bucks or so and you can get a jakes or all sport so it's tough call. It is hard to drop $370 for a lift though. $199 seems like a sweet spot of cheap. Wonder if that kit is any good.

I didnt, mine was $199 shipped to my door same exact lift though...If I wasnt isnt a rush to drive this thing I wouldnt have bought it. VERY stiff, had to remove one of the front leafs so it can at least move slightly. Overall poor quality, but it does work and do what it says it will, lift the cart. A-arms are loose, should have mine moving tomorrow and get a better feel for it.

Gotcha. So bottom line save my money and buy the real Alll Sport kit. Only thing I notice the kits by All Sports and Jakes do not come with HD springs but rather just lifters. What's up with that. Wonder if my single stock leaf do the job.

yes stock springs will be fine, if anything still a little stiff. The springs they come with are WAY too stiff, the suspension wont budge with them

Thanks that's good to know. Did you have a tough time getting the ball socket thing off when disconnecting the steering arm? UsuaLly those are tricky.
