Please know that he is a site sponsor and can get you all of the OEM parts you need to do it right, and his prices can't be beat.

And he won't go away after the sale. He's more into helping us out than making money, it seems!

Not too concerned, probably will upgrade wheel/tires.

Just an observation, that's all. Good luck with your cart if you get it.

I need to get out to the CC gas forum more often!

To follow up... this is the factory Z lift David is talking about:



I've put 3 lifts on my Lynx:

3" Jake's DS spindle lift: (bent a spindle)



3-1/2" Madjax DS A-Arm lift: (Broke it)



And now an All Sports DS 4" Super Sport A-Arm lift:



All of them installed just as it would on a non-lifted cart!

I've bent and broken lift kits because I tend to be a bit rough on my cart!
And contrary to some beliefs that Z lifts are weak because the the frame is cut... my factory Z brackets are still true and straight.

Just thought I'd add .02

Thanks Lockman, good info and pics help a lot. I assume you prefer the current lift setup the best. So that gives nearly 7" lift up front over stock DS ...... is your rear 6" lift All Sport? Is there much difference in ride/quality of the various brand of lifts?

[lockman1]

A 3" or a 4" All Sports Super Sport rear lift... (I can't remember what size it is)
Just use the rear blocks that come with the lift, it'll even out because of the longer rear leaf spring shackles.

The ride is better... up front!
I did have a bit of a problem when I lifted the rear with the factory HD rear leafs though...
(Keep in mind that I have a gas cart)
Once I put in the rear lift blocks, the factory leaf springs "Clapped" on acceleration:

You Tube

I did change out the rear HD leafs twice to stop the clapping, and then to get a smoother ride,
Right now, I have medium duty rear leafs, with a helper leaf for when (and if) I have a load on the back.

Curious, what is that rubber 'accordion' looking piece?
