One way to get 2 of lift in the rear
So I recently lifted the front of my cart 2.5 due to rubbing issues and then I ended up with a squat look, not my kind of thing, it was really bad when my two kids hopped on the back too.
So in the past I added a 1.75 longer shackle in the rear and that gave me about 3/4 of lift, that helped a bit when I needed it, but I really wanted another 2 I read a lot and had no luck except for doing a new 3 lift, witch I didnt really want to do or remake a very long shackle, witch I really didnt want. So I came up with the idea of purchasing a set of trailer slipper springs and cutting off the ends and using one or even both to re-arch my stock single cart leaf spring. So I made the purchase, along with a new unbolt set to fit the same application. When I received them I got to it, cut the ends unbolted the leaf pack and mounted them up, started with one (the bigger leaf) only gave me 1 disassembled it and added the second one, all said and done it gave me a solid 2.25! I did have to drill out a few holes on the old mounting plate to fit the new ubolts. If your looking to lift the rear an 1 or 2 Id recommend doing this! All-n-all it was a simple process, it gave me what I wanted and the ride is not even that stiff, I though this thing was going to be super stiff in the rear, but its very doable and not annoying. |

you could have just put the stock leaf springs on top of the axle and gained about the same. but you have a stronger set up the way you did it

Yeah I had no luck in finding the top mount perch just by its self or else I would of. That would of gave me a lot of lift I probably would have had to install my old shackles.
