$.02..... love my AllSports lift but it's the long travel and soaks up all the bumps...until the rear hits them. Where is the independent rear suspension kit?

Thanks for all the replies. I decided on the Allsports Super Sport 6" lift kit. IMO, this kit is a good middle ground between spindle lifts and long travel lift kits. I'll take some before and after photos for comparison.

I received my AllSports 6" Super Sport lift kit! I took some pics during the installation to show anyone interested the process of installing the kit...

I got the cart up on jack stands and removed the front wheels/tires.

In this pic I knocked the tie rod ends loose and removed the nuts holding the shock and spring.

After removing the parts neccessary on both sides and removing the spring and spring plates, you should have a set of parts that looks like this.

The side view of the wheel well should look as empty as this. Yes, you have to remove all of the stock suspension components to install this kit. Trust me, it's worth it!
