Re: Starting G1 Restoration
This info can be helpful for anyone who is installing a jakes 6" lift for a Yamaha G1. I have installed most of the components for the lift kit. Some info not in the directions is you have to offset the front shocks and I drilled out the lower holes to fit my shocks with bigger eyes. The back has to be notched for the mounts to fit. I hope the pics show enough detail. I can answer some question when and if they arise.

Re: Starting G1 Restoration
Looks great so far. I have 3 G 1 carts waiting for my attention but it will be awhile until I get to them. I have been stock piling g1 parts for a while now, just can't find roof struts for the wife's g1.
You shocks really look cool |

Re: Starting G1 Restoration
Looks very well done!
I'm anxious to get your impression of the handling with those shocks. Hopefully they are as stiff as the stock versions. I used the very same kit with some atv shocks and wasn't very happy with the results. |

Re: Starting G1 Restoration
The shocks are adjustable. They are on the lowest setting. I am still not sure about the rear shocks. I would like to have a seat on the back.
