Jake's double a arm lift kit

I wish I could find better pics

Look close, first pic near the bottom of the extensions, second pic you can see the clamp on the frame tube, very ridged.

Ron, I will have her to have a better look on my PC instead of trying on my phone.. did you use the supplied rear extensions that came with the kit? It appears that you added the muffler clamp to the extensions to clamp to the frame tube.

Yes, that is what I did. These are extensions that I made so I could use G19 rear shocks. G19 is an electric cart.

Thanks Ron.. was there a specific reason why you chose to use G19 shocks? I think my rear shocks are okay.. but I believe that my front shocks are junk.. and should find a good replacement.

My thinking was the G19 being electric would be heavier than gas so the shock would maybe be a bit stiffer. They are stiffer and I ended up with them on the front and rear, worked out great.

Keep that in mind.. was the shocks new or off a parts cart?

TheNewGuy · 08-17-2017, 11:49 AM

I was told they were new "take offs" found them on ebay 10 + years ago.

Ron, was looking at the rear shock extensions again last night.. the ones that came with the double a arm lift kit seem way to long, when hooked up it raises the rear way too high.. the mounts from my single A arm lift kit look more in line, frame is pretty level.. the centerline between the 2 mounting holes are approximately 4.25". I didn't take time to measure the double a arm extensions, was wondering what your centerline was and if your cart is sitting level or higher in the rear.. Thanks

Not sure of that dimension but you can change it to make the cart the way you want. I would check it for you but I sold that cart a few years ago.

That's a picture of the cart with the double a arm lift kit? The a arms look so much more relaxed in your picture. Mine are more jacked up like the shocks aren't positioned right or something. I checked all the pivot points last night to make sure that the bolts weren't too tight causing it to bind up.. I'm missing something somewhere.. lol
