Rxv lift
I just picked up a 2015 rxv. What is the best 6inch lift kit? Should i go spindle or a arm?
Thanks |

Re: Rxv lift
I had a 6" jakes spindle and did not like it at all. I swapped it out for the jakes long travel.

Re: Rxv lift
I also have the 6" Jakes lift and dont like it. Makes the cart hard to steer/control and according to those on here, any lift will shift the center of gravity and make it it rough riding.

Re: Rxv lift
I should have clarified my statement...the long travel significantly improved the ride over the spindle lift. Honestly, if you're street driving, I'd avoid a lift all together and install large tires if that's what you're looking to achieve. I know you can get 10" wheels on there without a lift...not sure about more.

Re: Rxv lift
20-21" tall tires fit without a lift. Wheel size doesn't matter as long as tire height doesn't exceed 21". Probably will have to trim some of the plastic on the rear bumper inside the rear wheel well with 20" tires.

Re: Rxv lift
I agree with Doug and Kernal. Try the taller tires. I'm trying to do the reverse and lower my cart by installing shorter tires. Not sure how much this will help, if any but its worth a try.

Re: Rxv lift
I've done several 3" factory and Jakes spindle lifts on RXV's and used 23" all terrain tires with no issues. I'm driving a 2014 like that right now. I don't like how high the 6" lifts turn out on the RXV so using the shorter lift helps.
