Thats kind of a tough call... my extension is 2 1/2" hole to hole with 7" of lift!
I'd suggest putting the lift on first, and with a floor jack under the engine pan, and remove the snubber bracket,
lower the front of the pan to "almost" level, (keep the front just a tad on the high side) and measure it!

Ha, it looked good. I used it on my kohler swap. Get it done, the kohler is a beast! Lots of fun. Are we both T.J. with club car Kohlers?

I'm glad to hear it worked for you. I was trying to figure out an easy way to drop the cradle and that looked like it should work. Yep I guess we are both T.J.'s with Club Cars with Kohlers.

I have a 2003 club car ds and trying to lower my engine pan to make a snubber extension bracket - but when I try to lower my engine down it only will go so far down n stop - nothing is visually stopping it like a cable or anything - I'm assuming it's the rear end 🤔 anyone else run into this problem or no what the heck is going on for this to happen or am I missing something here that's obvious 🤔 Thanks for any help, Kenny K Also I have a Jake's 6in double a-arm Lift kit newly installed

Its got to be a cable or a belt. is your rear end tipping forward and hitting your motor?
