Default 6" shackles

I made new 6" shackles to replace the stock 4" ones. Jacked up cart, removed old ones but the cart won't go high enough. I have the rear wheels off the ground and not even close. Do I also need to replace the shocks or what?

You can use shock extenders. You probably don't even need shocks, the cart don't weigh that much

When you install the shock extenders.....how about posting some pics of what it's like looking down upon the earth from that high. Also.....be very careful of any quick turns as you have changed the center of gravity of not only your cart.....but of the earth itself and you may just send our planet into an elliptical orbit that could send liberals and Nancy Pelosi streaming towards the Sun.

Then again.....make a hard left.........

Just bought shock extensions, do these go on the top or bottom of the shocks?
