It definitely would make things easier then the eccentric for a lifted cart!


But... Club Car doesn't think of these things when designing them... then again... ahhh... nevermind!

In the first page lockman provided it show a plate on top of the leaf spring. My cart has 3 of these stacked together.Should there be 1 or 3 of these plates? I found some information somewhere that stated the distance between the bolt holes on the spring should be 27" mine is 27" on or off the cart. This cart has low hours and has never been abused.I have owned it since new. Just noticed the wheel camber off after the lift was installed. I appreciate all of your help.
thanks

Well in that case, it is probably not your leaf spring. Did you check the condition of the king pins, bushings and sleeves when you put the lift on? What about the holes where the delta arms mount to? These can become enlongated just from normal use. If any of these are worn, the tires will tip in at the top. I am assuming that both of your tires have this lean condition?

This is the thing i don't like about a jakes lift. they are very nice products. But if there is a camber condition there is no provision to help it out....

other than checking for and replacing any worn components, there really isn't much that i know of that can help your situation.

Good luck! let us know how you fare...

I have 3 plates on my 07 Lynx also, the illustration from the manual is just a general idea what to look for.

Your tires aren't off as much as you made them sound,
try the camber adjustment per the manual, it just may work for you!

What is around your leaf spring bolt on your kingpin?

They put 3 plates on several models. I guess it is their way of getting an extra half inch of lift in the front of the cart. Rasy as they already have those parts on hand. I have seen several carryalls with them on there.

A steering stop, they (2) come with Jake's 3" spindles,
I've since ground them down a little for a slightly tighter steering radius!
