Default Re: Marathon lift kit install, made simple

I bought the above recommended #275 springs and they are WAY to stiff for my 1990. Now I'm stuck with $80 springs. If anyone would want them I'll sell them for $50 + shipping. I'm buying #200 springs.

tommy- what was wrong with the recomended springs? just lousy ride? what kind of terain are you driving on?
I have a 92 and crank is locked up so thinking of doing a HF preditor conversion but will need to lift it. Im on concrete streets most of the time and loaded down with kids and coolers to go to the pool

Hats off to Kuhndog, I had figured out how to fabricate the front myself after looking at kits online but didn't like the shock extension that came with it. Looked flimsy and cheap. I was stuck on the rear. Thanks to Kuhndog it made sense. So my coworker and I fabricated the front pedestal spacers. We did things a little different. But still same result, one sweet lift.
Added some pics of before and after.

Did you use the #275 springs? My carts a 4 seater, may be the choice for me.

I know this is from along time ago, did you ever sell these springs?
