Default Modified Jakes Long Travel on my TXT

I installed the Jakes Long Travel Kit on my 2004 TXT. My cart is actually used for golf and didn't want as much lift so I had a buddy with a machine shop machine a couple more mounting holes so I would only have about 1 1/2 inches of lift. What do you think?

Before and after pictures.

The rear is still high isn't it?

No, I took off the "blocks" for the rear lift kit and just left the axle under the springs. This gives about a 2 inch lift on the back. I'll post more picks when I get it back to the house.

Post a picture. That sounds sketchy.

Forgot to take pictures, but I just used the old u-bolts and metal plate from the axle before I put the lift on it and instead of the axle being on top of the spring it is now on the bottom of the spring, this gives about a 2 inch lift.

Bunkers aren't usally a problem depending on how much beer I have had. But the cart rides way better now. Looks really good too.
