    Default Golf cart lift?

    Want to lift a club car precedent. I've heard some kits are better that others. Opinions?

    How high are you trying to go and what do you do with your cart?

    This is a very good all around lift that will let you put 23" tires under your cart. Between the lift and tires, that'll get you off the ground for sure.

    Spindle lifts are a joke. They serve their purpose for "lift" but that's it. You'll have a ridged, taller ride with the same narrow stance. A-arm will widen your stance a touch and lengthen your wheel base. That coupled with an offset wheel and you'll be sitting right. If you're looking to do a fair amount of trail riding or something you can go with a long travel but that's to the extreme.

    Only lifts I would look at are Jakes and AllSports

    I just lifted my cart with a 4" Allsport A-arm lift and it turned out nice.

    That's the look I'm going for. That's the route I'll go. Thanks.
