Jake's 6" rear lift help

cdb770 · 05-20-2010, 06:45 AM

Anyone have pictures of the final install of a Jake's 6" rear axle lift on an electric cart for reference, to make sure I have evrything going the right way during my install. The instructions are very vague and do not show anything after the fact.

See this.....well its wrong.

The bottom bracket is backwards. The short side should be towards the front.

Heres a pic of the right way. Crappy cell pic.

Thanks Roady, I think my shackle is different from the one you have, but the concept is the same I think. My shackle (lift) has a half round cut-out for the axle tube, and then has four long bolts that must go from the top to the bottom. But think it is the same from the top down:
1) shock bracket
2) leaf spring
3) shackle/lift block
4) axle with bolts going through it all (not sure of bolt position head on top or bottom, but will go with the laws of gravity keeping it in if the nuts come off)

All finished with the lift, now deciding if I want to leave the rear seat on, or get a box for the rear. My daughter was just itching to drive the cart this morning.
