Default TXT Lift Question

Howdy...I have what I believe is a 3" axle lift on my TXT. Can I put a 3" spindle lift on this axle to get 6" of lift? And if so, can I then buy a separate 6" spacer for the rear? Anything else I need to take into consideration? Will this move the front wheels forward? Thanks for any help.

A few others have done what you are talking about. What kind of spindle lift are you considering?

We have done that a couple of times ... like a 3" spindle on top of a Z lift or Axle lift and then a 6" rear ... it does not always add up like you might expect... There can be some mysterious gains which result in two 3 inch lifts = 6.5 inches.

Here is what I currently have, not sure of the height, the spacers in the rear measure 2" tall, I just put on 23x10.5x12 wheels/tires, would like to go ahead and get a 6" lift, not sure of the difference between an A arm lift and a drop axle lift. Will one or the other get the front wheels further forward? I'm kinda suprised Jakes website doesnt offer any explanation/information on their different lifts. And what about All Sports? Thanks

A-arm is for club cars unless you mean a long travel kit!

So if Im going with a 5" drop axle lift, Jakes or All Sports? All Sports is a little cheaper and comes with the spindles? But Jakes advertises 1 inch increased wheelbase and 2 inches increased width but All Sports doesnt specify? If they are about the same I would think its a plus to get the spindles. Somebody tell me what to do!

I like allsports better IMHO. If it's an a-arm lift for an ezgo then yes it is a long travel!
