Re: g29 madjax lift alignment - cant get it
Never used Madjax kit, but on Jakes I set at zero toe in. Good luck

I just watched the Madjax installation video. I've never heard of toe in/out set like that - but - it's a lifted suspension and what I'm creating is hi-speed 5 inch ground clearance |

Re: g29 madjax lift alignment - cant get it
I had a 6” madjax lift on my prior g29. It was fine if I rode by myself and kept it under 20mph. But if I had extra passengers or drove faster I could not keep it between the lines! Even on smooth paved streets. I tried messing with the alignment and just couldn’t get it to stay true. When I asked a certain someone about it, they said that that’s why they only deal with the Jakes lift kits. Saying that the geometry is incorrect on other lifts which causes the steering issues.
Just my $.02 |

A Jake's lift kit is 3 axis adjustable -- needed if you want safe handling at any speed faster then walking. |

Re: g29 madjax lift alignment - cant get it
What type of results were you looking for? --- Own a cart that does what it wants at hi speeds and it scares me --- or I wasted my money being cheap and I went on and bought a better more adjustable front suspension. Most people won't admit that they wasted there money. We can't tell how to fix the caster issue cause there isn't an adjustment to correct it. You aren't the first to have this issue. My thoughts are how can they sell a product that isn't adjustable? You said the cart was professionally lined up on a machine. Didn't the guy tell you that there may be drive ability problems.

Re: g29 madjax lift alignment - cant get it
I just mean I wish somebody else with that lift would say they were able to get it right or that they had to swap it out.
And FYI.. the madjax a arm was the same or more than the jakes spindle lift and the all sports a arm.. i thought I did my research and bought the best available . |
