Question ? about replacing broken parts on a lift kit

Yesterday there was an accident on my Yamaha G16 Electric cart. The front right tire hit a pole, and it snapped the front passenger A Frame lift part. The tire is ok, the passenger side tie rod was snapped. The question is, is it possible just to buy the replacement for the passenger side A frame? I have seen whole kits, but I do not see individual replacement parts. Does anybody know? I am working on finding out the manufacturer of the current one. I know its not a Jake's lift, but from what I can tell its a 6" A frame lift. The closest I found to exactly what it looks like is this: http://www.candccustomsinc.com/lift-...-electric.html

thanks for any help

Greg

Ok. I looked on both the front and rear, and I could not find any kind of marking at all. The front part has about 80% of the black paint chipped off, so if it was on top of that paint, its gone now. The rear had 0 rust, but no labeling of any kind. But, it really does look like the one in the link

This is definitely not our Jake's Lift Kit, it is another imported imitation. Remember folks if it does not say Jake's it's a fake!

I know its not a Jake's lift but, if anybody knows of a place, or if this has happened to you before. Any meaningful help would be appreciated.

as jake had said, it is a knock off, there are some out there that look the same, but the tubing is not the same,
here is 2 kits that 3R list
here is jakes kit https://www.3rsalesandservice.com/ca...e/JAKE6253.htm

here is a knock off kit https://www.3rsalesandservice.com/ca.../0LIFT-002.htm

they look the same, but there not, the jakes have thicker tubing and is much stronger and heavy in weight... cost 40 bucks more, but worth every penny, i would recommend calling jakes and get 2 new a-arms for the front and you will good to go or just replace the entire kit for a good one..

as for a new tie rod end, after market are about $25 and a real yami will be about $40..
hope this tells you what you looking to know

Yes sir, thank you. I bought the cart used, and it already had the lift kit on it. I knew it wasn't a Jake's, and I know the quality difference between the knock off, and the real deal. I wanted to replace the lift kit eventually, just had other upgrades in mind first. I appreciate the help sir. Thanks again!
