Cart will not clear garage door
I am building a 2005 percedent with 6 inch All sport lift and 23's. It will not clear the garage by about 3 inches. What are my options? Chop the canopy supports?

Lower the roof by cutting the supports or go with a 4 inch lift and smaller rim and tires.

Make sure you check your garage door opener first. I had the same problem until I noticed I still had some up travel left. The door wasn't actually fully opening above the door opening itself. Way easier than chopping the top. Worked for me.

Re: Cart will not clear garage door
The front clears, the back is the issue. Actually when measuring for the floor to the bottom lip of the top, the back is 2 inches higher. I am going to cut the back struts off at the bottom and lower them. That will give me clearance and level the top.

Air shocks with a viair compressor (no tank) I have the same issue but with the push of a momentary toggle on the front and rear the shocks release air and down she goes.... clears with no problems. I also set her frame directly on the trailer when hauling for a lower center of gravity.

I reinstalled coil overs on the rear, they are gabriel load carriers. They should have a much smoother ride. The air shocks were a pretty firm ride due to the psi needed for the ride height.
