Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs
Is this a spindle lift? I'm guessing since The Jake's guy told you to check the front spring that your lift is built off the stock suspension.
I have a 6" lift and 22.5" tires, but I have a double A-arm setup. With the double A-arm lift, the entire front suspension is swapped out, and the new suspension geometry moves the wheel spindles about 5-6" forward. |

Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs
I have the entire stock front suspension from my cart laying in my basement, when I get home I can look at it and see if it can be flipped, I'll bet that it can.

Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs
Yes the front leaf is swapable. I flipped it to the other side and no change. I ordered a jakes wheelbase extension kit and am going to put it on tonight. Thanks for your help everyone!

Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs
I would like to know which lift you have as well. I have the All Sports 6" double a-arm lift and have 4-5" of clearance there.
if you did the spindle lift, is it possible you got sent 2 right side spindles? will it even bolt up that way? Again, Im not looking at my suspension right now and I also have the double a-arm lift. |

Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs
put your wheels straight. measure the clearance between the tire and the rocker on each side. if it isn't the same at straight there is a problem. it is possible you got a bad part, or the cart was damaged earlier.
too bad about that extension part. with the cost of that and the current lift, its almost to the point of a much better ( in my opinion) double a arm lift |

Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs
Jakes makes a 2" wheelbase extension. I installed it and problem solved. It also gives it a nicer stance. I'm thinking about installing a kit on my 06 now. Thanks for all your guys help!

Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs

Re: Jakes 6" lift left wheel rubs
Tell us what kind of lift it is! Since it seems nobody here has ever had a rubbing problem running a 6" lift and 22" tires, we'd like to know more details about your lift.
