Long travel
 

I'm sure this has been asked before....but I'm asking anyway. :help:
I have a 95CCDS48. It seems like there are only 2 choices for long travel lifts; Jakes and the one from Stretch Plastics. Any opinions which one is better or if there are more options I've yet to find. I'm tired of getting thrown around in my cart for the little bit of offroading I do. I currently have a Jakes 6" spindle which is fine for the road and a slower cart, but I want more stability and a smoother ride. Thanks in advance. :thumbup:

I bought a 6in longtravel from everythingcarts and love it nice stable ride & easy to put on

Birddogss, is it an a-arm with coil overs or a true long travel? :thumbup: Would you buy it again? How does it ride?

Re: Long travel
 

I have the Jakes long travel on a 96 CC. The ride and offroad capability of the lift have left me pretty happy. I will say that the front shocks are kindda cheapies for such a high priced lift.....just my opinion. I do believe that it is very well thought out, durable, and really does help to make the cart offroad pretty well by articulating enough to keep the rear tires on the ground.

Jake's will tell you that the shocks are cheap. They do this to keep the cost down. The Strech kit is the best available, but it is only a front lift. There have been many copy cats since the LT introduction. A - Arm, unfortunately no longer means longtravel. I don't have much experience with Club Car A - Arm lifts, as we mainly deal with EZGO carts. Each of the 2 kits are nice for EZGO's, but we modify both of them when we add them to our carts.

the one I got is a springover in the rear..but the front part is longtravel & the shocks seem heavyduty & a great ride..plan to realy test it out this weekend once my new motor & controller are hooked up..but so far yes I would buy again!!

Re: Long travel
 

Terra Toys makes a Kit for your cart if you call Frank at Alpha Carts he has one right now..Terra Toys makes a Heavy Duty nice front end for carts.Its stronger than the Strech..

Re: Long travel
 

hey chasjr. do u know that it is stronger from experience? - like do you or one of your buddies have this set up ? i am asking because i want this set up and have not seen anyone except frank use them. :thumbup:

Re: Long travel
 

The TT front end is heavier duty no doubt..I own both..The strech will have a little softer ride and the TT will be firmer ..Both are nice..:thumbup:

Re: Long travel
