I went with the drop axle just because the spindle lifts looks rather flimsy. A drop axle looks like much more beef under there compared to two little bent arms sticking down holding the wheels on. They might be just as strong, but they sure don't look like they are. JMO

That was kinda my thoughts on it as well. Thanks everyone for the help and guidance, I think I will give Jake's a call now.

Some spindles may be "flimsy". Our patented Jake's spindles are cast from of ductile iron making this the strongest spindle kit you can buy. We sell 20:1 spindle kits over axle kits since we started making these. Remember you get what you pay for.

we have never had a problem with our drop beams for the earlier carts and our drop spindles for the new cars... also Stech's long travel is our number one selling kit...

I've installed their spindles, and they are definitely worth the price and the quality is far superior to stock plus you get the added benefit of saving 100.00 when you decide to get the disk brake kit!! If you plan on hitting a few unexpected bumps, Jake's is the piece you want under your cart, spindle or drop axle.

OK, went with the Jake's 6" spindle lift and 22x10x10 tire package from 3R cart parts & accesories. Sorry Jake's, but they had free shipping and 10% off the total price for BGW members, and a little closer to me in Ohio also. So, I should get it a little quicker on top of everything.

Thanks everyone for the assistance!
