This one: http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-y...ll-sports.html shows some pretty good pics of the Allsports lift. It seems like a decent lift but the instructions are horrible. Once you figure out where the parts align, it is very easy to install. Worth mentioning- they say it will only work with up to a 20" tire but I already had a set of 22's and they fit perfect with two easy modifications: I bent the side rail into the wheel well even with the inner fender, I then cut the inner side of the rear horizontal frame rail and bent it back. Took about 10 minutes with a Jigsaw and the 22" really fill seem to fill the opening nicely.Thanks for all the comments.

Diggler, Smallblock did a flat bed out of wood in the "members rides" section on a client's cart. Go through it and look at it. It will give you ideas, then you could build sides on to it. But it looked good, check it out! It was a red cart.

Beautiful job. Hope mine turns out that good!

I agree with everyone, nice job on your car. You should fell very proud

Thanks for all the comments- I guess I kinda cheated on the paint. I work at a Ford Dealer and one of my guys in the paint shop did the paint job for a real bargain- . I just wanted a quickie but he gave it the full treatment with the automotive base coat/clear coat. The guys at the paint supplier got a kick out of his request for the recipe for John Deere Green. I still havent found that pic of the cart with the stakebed on it but intend to try building one this weekend. Put some lights onit, paint the steering wheel and she ought to be pretty much done. Of course the kids want a little green trailer to go with it...........

Cart looks amazing, it literally looks like the offspring of a Gator! Have you done anything with the engine, or is it stock?

[DirtDiggler]

Thanks- engine is stock. I wouldnt mind doing some stuff to it as long as it doesnt affect dependibility. It will run 18mph now but takes a while to get there.
