Default Marathon lift kit questions

Just picked up a 1988 ezgo marathon and looking to do the customary upgrades to it. Just started researching lift kits etc and notice that Jake's kits specifically say marathon 1989 - 94. Can anyone tell me if the 4" kit will fit a 1988? Are the models so different between 88 and 89?

Anyone know? Is my only option the block type lift on the 88 Marathon?

I believe 88 is when they started putting in 4 stroke engine in.
Stopped making Marathons in 94.5
That would be the only difference I do believe.

this is the lift
the EZGO Marathon Golf Cart 4" Lift Kit is for Electric 1980-1994.5

gas cart is different
the drop axel is for 1989-1994.5

Ok. So the drop axle isn't a fit for an 88 electric marathon?

When I did my lift on my 96 txt there was no block lifts that I found in my research for it.

I went with a 6" drop axle kit, similar to the pic posted above.
