Lift Kit
Just curious from those of you who have done it before. How long should it take to install the 4" "premium" lift kit from EZ-GO. After I convinced work of the value of getting good batteries, I had them order a lift kit and heavy duty rear springs so we can keep the carts for those of us who haul a lot of tools from bottoming out on the rough terrain. I was just wondering what I have to look forward to time and if there are any other challenges to worry about. Thanks

Re: Lift Kit
You should be able to install it in a couple of hours or less. You are talking about the axle lift, correct.

Re: Lift Kit
If you end up doing the heavy duty springs in the front as well, it may take a little longer, but otherwise you should have no problem, everything will be new. The old parts you will be able to just unbolt and remove.

Re: Lift Kit

Re: Lift Kit
PB Blaster is your friend on hard to remove bolts. Just spray them all down the night before and you'll have no problem removing them.
