I dono if I am convinced on that lift kit, It looks kinda tipsy. And in my opinion I dont think it loooks that great.


as for the golf kart, that thing is mint. now you just need a spring over kit for it.

I'm guessing you're rock crawling with that thing, otherwise it's a waste. I like lifted trucks, but that IN MY OPINION, looks retarded. I know rock crawlers like to get high like that, but that doesn't make sense to me either... gotta have balance... you get too high, and you screw up the center of gravity, and you can't crawl ANYTHING ... the best is getting it to a point of EXTREME suspension travel and you really won't get that with independent suspension!

Yea, the only thing it could possibly be good for is rock crawling. But then wouldn't bigger tires help out more?

Well, I was more talking about the 'pede... I do like the golf cart... been in one that's been lifted... kinda fun. A little too slow for me, though... need at least a 150cc motor in it... with 5 gears.

I have seen a stock Apearing golf kart, with a 440 snomobile engine in it. It could lift the front tires of the ground all the way across town it had so much power. to bad the whole thing was a wicked pice of crap so rarley would ever run.


little trick for you golf kart guys, if you take a golf tee ( or stick) and prop the throttle all the way WOT under the seat on the engine, this wont allow the govoner to kick in and bring the rpms doun. And you there is a electronical switch on the gas petal that turns the engine on and off. so when you just tap the throttle the littlest bit, it hits that on switch and electricly turns the einge over, then when it starts, whooom fast, till you let all the way off the throttle so the electrical switch on the gas petal is off, then it kills the engines spark and coasts to saftey. I do it all the time with my grandmothers golf kart, I drift across wet grass with it all the time. wicked fun.

Its not very tipsy becasue when i dropped the rear arms i made sure that it wasnt tipys and for the front its rides like a cadillac. And the golf cart is a ezgo twin engine and it goes 28 +. But my dad builds golf cart with 23 hp engines and they go 45+.

Wow, what a bunch of pr*cks. Thats really neat. I can see how that would come in handy for jumping or any off road driving. I would lower the body about a inch or so, it sits a little too high in my opinion.

Slam the body down lower and it would look good. Also, people who say that ground clearance for crawling is good are dead wrong. 2wd and independent suspension dont mix with the rocks. Looks good though

I am thinking about putting maxx tires and wheels on it. I dont go rock crawling with it either I go threw water and mud becuase i have a 5 acer backyard and one side of it is just mud and water so I like to play around in it. Here are some more pics I redid the back lift kit and I loward the body.

I think putting Maxx tires on it will actually make it look TONS better. It's like taking a 1:1 truck, jacking it sky high... and putting 32" tires on it... just doesn't look right.

There is no way that thing could have any up travel for the suspension. Looks like [:'(]
