lift kit install
Hello to all
Does anyone remember the name of the thread where someone ( maybe Tahoe Dawg ) did a write up with pics about doing a rear lift his way It involved moving the rear break plates and shock mounts from one side to the other Thanks in advance Dale D |

Re: lift kit install
It's a permanent fixture here on this forum. I did two of them this morning. Works like a charm.

Re: lift kit install
yes it does !! my cart ( rear brake ) would lock up because of the tight break cable after the lift ...very dangerous! until TahoeDawg fixed it " his way " at first I asked a local cart shop here about doing it that way and they wouldn't even attempt it so I took a little trip to Augusta to see David , no problems since !

Re: lift kit install
Thank you guy's very much
I will be doing some switching around and I will be fabricating a set of rear spring shackles to lift the rear up 2 inches and I want that little extra cable length on the brake lines..........I will see if this will accommodate what I am trying to accomplish, if not, I will fabricate new plates that will accommodate my personal needs.............These HD rear springs make my ride FAR TOO ROUGH when I only have 1 or 2 riders in the cart, which is about 95% of the time, and the 2 inches with the stock springs, as well as cutting the wheel wells will keep the tires from rubbing with the additional load of the 2 extra riders, and if they do rub, I have some booster springs I can use that only hit on heavy loads |

Re: lift kit install
If you want a soft ride put tall sidewall tires on and get rid of the low profile ones.

Re: lift kit install
The ride was very comfortable with these same tires, then I installed those HD Springs, and without 4 people on the cart, it is like the Flintstone Mobile
I'll try this and report back with photos of the Aluminum Shackles that I fabricate and if I need to fab new plates, I will use Aluminum also, since I have a source for it free from the Aluminum boat building companies here locally |
