Default A - arm lift kit

Just put a 6" A - arm lift on my 97 club car (gas) with 22X11X10 tires. Wondering if the cart is stock, will I loose any power. What I mean is the cart going to be a DOG now. HOPE NOT

I don't think you will lose much. If it does become an issue, you can get a power spring and have the clutch sheave machined on the rear clutch to add an extra 30%-40%... It makes a big difference!

I did the same size tires as you (diameter-wise) and my cart actually wasn't too bad before I did any clutch work. I only noticed power loss on long, steep hills. And my motor is only 8hp (KF82). If you have a '97, the smallest HP motor is 9hp (FE290). I had the clutch work Tonka mentioned done last week and now she'll climb any hill. I tried some steep ones today and the cart made it to the top of every one.
