Jake's 6" A-Arm Lift for CC DS on backorder, now what?

Waverider969

Placed an order on a 6" Jake's Double Arm lift kit for my 94 Club Car DS with one of the sponsors. Started taking my cart apart over the weekend. Just got call that the lift kit is out of stock and on back order due to some part that Jake's is waiting for to update this kit. No ETA! So now what am I to do??
Wait for it or just go with the All Sport Super Sport kit that was same price and is in stock. Guy told me Jake is more solid kit that's how he sold me over the A-Arm All Sport kit I originally was about to order from same place.

It sucks but I'd wait for the Jake's. Wonder if they could send you the kit minus the one part...

Waverider969

Nope I asked. They said Jakes only ships complete kits.

Wish I could get side by side compare between Jake an All sport to make session. Seems like people love one or the other on here.

FWIW, I've never heard anything bad about a Jake's kit, most guys like the All-Sports too but some have had issues with the powder coat peeling off

Waverider969

Well that's a good thing to know I guess that could swing my decision one way or the other as well.
I read dozens of jakes vs all sports posts and don't recall seeing that. Most posts don't really back up why they like one over other so the choice to decide isn't cut and dry.

I purchased & installed the Allsports 6" A-Arm kit on my 01 CC & have been pleased with it.
It is my understanding from reading this forum that it provides more articulation in the front than the Jake's kit.
I wouldn't hesitate to order it instead of the Jakes kit.

The person at the vendor where I placed my order told me Jakes is much more solid and heavy duty compared to the All Sport kits and they sell bothl. Is there truth to this? Given price is same I want to get the best kit.

I purchased and installed the 7.5" Allsports Super Sport lift on my 96 CC and loved it. I beat the snot out of my cart down here in the south Florida swamps and it never let me down.

The powder coating has held up perfect and several times while wheeling over cypress and palmetto stumps I was sure I landed hard enough to bend something but it never happened.

I have no experience with Jakes lifts, but I recommend Allsports products. Also a pretty easy install too, as it comes mostly assembled.

Thanks. That's the kinda stuff I wanna hear. Almost ready to
Switch my order to All Sport since no ETA On Jakes kit yet in stock.
