Spindle lifts replace the front spindles and are the simplest, most affordable way to add about 3 to 6 inches. A-arm lifts replace the front suspension arms for more travel and a smoother ride on rough ground. Block lifts raise the rear on leaf-spring carts. Every kit is specific to make, model and year, so confirm fitment first, and plan tire size, alignment and steering stability with the lift.
A lift adds ground clearance and room for bigger tires. Pick the type that suits how you drive.
Types
| Type | How | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Spindle lift | Taller front spindles | Simple install, most popular |
| A-arm lift | New front control arms | Rough ground, more travel |
| Block lift | Blocks under rear leaf springs | Rear lift on leaf-spring carts |
| Long-travel kits | Extended suspension | Trails and off-road |
Fitment first
Lift kits fit specific makes, models and model years, such as Club Car DS or Precedent, E-Z-GO TXT or RXV, and Yamaha Drive or Drive2. Confirm your model and year from the serial number before ordering.
Tires and wheels
Lift height sets the largest tire you can fit. See our tire size and wheel fitment guide.
After the install
- Align the front end.
- Check brake function and cables.
- Add a steering stabilizer if the steering feels loose with large tires.
- Expect higher energy use; see lithium conversions.

Common questions
What size tires fit with a 6 inch lift?
Often 22 to 23 inch tires, depending on the cart and kit. Check the lift maker's tire guidance.
Do lift kits make golf carts less stable?
Raising the center of gravity reduces stability. Wider tires and careful driving help.
Can I install a lift kit myself?
Many owners do with basic tools and a jack, but alignment afterward is important.
Does a lift kit affect speed and battery range?
Bigger tires that come with lifts raise top speed slightly and draw more energy, reducing range.
