Re: 1" lift kit?
To give the front a small lift I used a piece of 1/2 aluminum, you can see in this photo above the spring.Attachment 129898

Re: 1" lift kit?
Thanks for all the input. I was able to find the shackles you all recommended on ebay. Not cheap at $47 but I have moved and significantly reduced my tool inventory so cutting them is not really an option.

Re: 1" lift kit?
When I used the "block under the front spring" 1 inch lift option, I noticed it did not actually raise the cart but tilted the front wheels away from where they rubbed.

Re: 1" lift kit?
Update: i installed the shackles two days ago. Solved the problem perfectly. I'm sure I overpaid but I had a golf tournament to use the cart for so I was on somewhat of a time crunch. I think the new shackles are about 2.5" longer than stock and it raised the cart an inch. Much stiffer in the back now but I don't mind it.

Re: 1" lift kit?
Since y'all talking about shackles. I installed a 6 in on my ds this weekend blocks in rear with my HD springs so the back in higher now can I shorter my shackles to make my cart level? Or will the rear seat kit and all make it level again.
