lift kit and wheels/tires
 
Howdy folks, I am looking for a 4-6" lift kit that will include new rear springs, my current ones are single leaf and I need heavy duty as we have a rear seat. I would like new wheels and tires. the problem I am running into is in some of the combo kits I dont like the available tires they offer. I would like to order my own atv style tires with big tread. Can you folks recomend a place with reasonable prices and what kits work out the best? PS my cart has the metal caps on the hubs for some reason that seams to make a difference. Any help is apriciated. Thanks Wills250psd

click on "site sponsers" just above. see what they all have to offer...maybe call one of them to see if they can swap out the tires for ones you want?

If you aren't doing a Long Travel, which is 8" or so, (Jakes is around $800.00) then I would go with a Jakes spindle lift. They are simpler, stronger and have less "monkey motion- BS" to deal with.

If you are interested in a used 8" A arm lift PM me......

Allsport lift kits have a MUCH better turning radius if that is important to you. I sent you a PM. I have installed all kinds of lift kits....they are not hard to do.

I would like to know the difference as well. Also is the AllSports lift preferred over the Jakes lift?
