Am I good? 2015 Refurb RXV

That looks like a 3" spindle lift to me. All the lifts look taller on the RXV's.

Get a pic of the inner part of the front wheel at the axle and the suspension from underneath at the rear wheel. In the rear there likely is a big aluminum block between the axle and the suspension leaves. From the pics it does look like a 3" spindle lift as stated above. The new pics will confirm.

I took my 3" lift off as I think it rides rougher due to the geometry of the spindles as they align to the suspension. My cart can go 28 mph and I did not care for the higher center of gravity at that speed, especially on a cart that is not designed to go very fast.

kg, from a fellow kg, You can look on the spindle and maybe find a part number to look up to find out what lift that is. Also just a blind stab is to measure from the center of the new axle shaft to the center of where the spindle pivots. It is just a spindle lift so no magic wand.. Where in SC are you ?

Thanks for the input. I'll get that pic and post it.

Appreciate the knowledge. I will be spending some time in here getting more informed.

Looks like the 3" spindle lift to me. Installed one on my last RXV that I upgraded to the 350 amp controller and 23" tires.

Advice on the controller upgrade? I saw one for $400 that seems like a refurb, or $1600 for what I assume is a new one?

Do you recommend the upgrade?
