Which Lift Kit is Best for a Custom Golf Cart?
While shopping custom golf carts for sale, consider your terrain needs. If you plan on taking the golf cart on a variety of terrain, including the beaches or rocky areas, then you need an adjustable kit.
Also, the types of tires you use might determine the lift kit you need, since some lift kits do not widen the wheelbase.
