That's a home made lift, as best as I can tell. Probably 2" in the front and about 5" in the back

Re: What lift is this?
just be sure the lift you're looking at is for your electric version. i don't know what the difference between the electric and gas carts is (well, other than the obvious ), but for certain years, each uses a different lift.

Re: What lift is this?
why do you want to lift the rear more? It looks like it will take bigger tires in the rear just the way it is....right now you have a lift on the rear and no lift kit in front...so why not go with a small Jakes spindle in front to level it out. Getting too tall is not going to help it axle clearance is the limiting factor in ground clearance. All you're doing is lifting the body to put larger tires on it....

I am looking at a 6" lift for front, thought that it may be taller that rear. Will install front, first then worry about rear. The drop axle should give me front clearance. I just didn't know what I had in this cart.

Re: What lift is this?
The rear looks OK - just purchase a decent front lift. The Jake's spindle would be fine, just like scottyb says, or a drop axle front if you don't like the welds on your existing axle...

Re: What lift is this?
what brand lift is it? if new, i think most (over 4", i think) come with new tierod shafts. just unscrew the tierod ends from the old, screw into the new. i don't remember who, but someone here cut the shaft in half and welded an extra inch or two the center of each shaft.

Re: What lift is this?
Unfortunately it is used with no tie rods. Where can I get some new ones?
