lift advise
I have an 08 yamaha drive, wanting to put a 6 inch lift with 23 inch tires. What do you guys think? Will be used in a camground and a little offroad such as grass, nothing to serious. Spindle or a-arm pros and cons. Want to go with good looks without sacraficing to much, any input is valued. thanks for the replies. HANK

Re: lift advise
For what you are going to use it for, go with the Jakes spindle kit. The A-arm kit is overkill (but looks way cooler, and costs lots more). The A-arm kit can handle bigger rocks, and rides softer, but, if cost is an issue, go with the spindle kit.

Re: lift advise
I just put a jakes 6in spindle lift on my 08 drive. Looks good I think. I only put 22in tires on mine and had to trim the front of the rear fenders to eliminate a rub.

Re: lift advise
The way the Yamaha Drive rocker panels are made require you to trim the edge when installing a larger tire no matter what size lift kit you install. It's a simple process. Here is a picture and you can see you simply take the point off the end of the bottom of each rocker. You can do this with a sawsall.

Re: lift advise
So with a jakes 3 inch lift can I use 22 inch tires if I shave that piece off or only 20 inch tires on 10 inch rims. Looking for a good combo to lift my 08 yami
