  • I install the cheapest 6" lift kit I could buy. The instructions that come with the these kits are horrible, and really unusable. With most of these cheap kits, you will need to add extra washers on the tie-rod ends due to the thinner risers that mount to the spindles. Overall not hard to install, but takes a little time. Hope the video helps.

    Just did this the other day! pretty much the same kit. The rear lift with the heavy-duty leaf springs makes it sit up higher in the back than the front. Cool to watch your build as I am doing the same thing on my 95 Medalist!

      ​@@Ozarkwild what controller are you going to go with? was that the stock one you were running it? the 4 posts? I had to get a new one on mine but kept the stock motor (went to 3 post 325amp I believe) and she flies!

    You can also hit the end of the shaft that the tie rod seats in (put the nut on hand tight before doing this) the rod will pop up within a 2-5 good hits.

      Of course using the correct tools is always best option.
      This is just an option if you don’t have the correct tools on hand. & you don’t feel like chasing it out.

    Great video! Our old stock EZGO electric golf cart was going to need tires so we ordered All Terrain tires. They were delivered mashed together for shipping and the young guys at the local tire store could not get them apart to mount them. I am in my late sixties and I had to pry the tires open myself. The rear axle had already been positioned under the leaf springs at some point in the cart's life so the tires bolted right on. They rubbed just slightly on bumps so I ordered a cheap lift kit. With the kit installed the front tires rubbed and the rear tires could not even be mounted so we had to order spacers.

    • @Ozarkwild
      @Ozarkwild  10 місяців тому

      Yeah I had the same issue, the factory type shocks didn’t work after the lift. I went with a Monroe shock, made for a car. See this video ua-cam.com/video/muobO8C7Lxg/v-deo.html

    Hey brother. Nice work! Just watched this. Not trying to be "that guy", but I noticed the front bolts on the rear leaf springs are in backwards. Have been from when you got the cart.

    • @Ozarkwild
      @Ozarkwild  Рік тому

      I noticed that as well. Which is why I had to remove the battery cage to get the nuts off. Cage was toast anyway. And just to be ‘that guy’, I reinstalled them back the same way.

    Do you think it would make a difference if the small side of the rear lift blocks were facing the other way? My 2015 has the barke cable on top of the hub and not the bottom and the mounting plate interferes with the short side of the block but if I reverse it, it fits.

    • @Ozarkwild
      @Ozarkwild  Рік тому

      The block slope is not that significant, so if you can get it to bolt up, might okay

  • @Wilsonwillfixit

    I just started doing my fronts with the same exact kit and one of my bolts won’t fit because the bracket doesn’t extend all the way across the leaf spring and is blocked by the shock bracket.
