91 G2a winter project (paint and lift)

[bekind]

Hi all,

I need help with picking up a lift for the yamaha g2a. some threads praise one type of lift and others are critical of it. Making matter worse, my neighbor has recently added a lift to his cart which negatively affected the handling and performance. I would like to avoid that at all cost... I'm looking for a lift that:
- doesn't impact neither handling nor performance.
- safe to drive in steep hills. Tires to handle sand at the beach
- looks cool
- No cutting or welding. complete package.
- up to $1k for lift, tires\wheels, shocks.

I'm in favor of Jakes long travel lift kit but some stated that it is not safe since the rear tires are narrower than the front. Please provide your recommendation. Thanks. (sorry for the long thread)
