I just bought a 2000 Carryall 6 that was converted to a Transporter 6 with 1100 hrs on it. The dealer I bought the cart at in GA suggested that I stay away from a spindle kit and go for the z bar set up that Club Car offers. He stated that the Jakes kit will cause my front end to wander and just cause the cart to drive bad. they told me that the factory kit would maintain all of the factory geometry and I would still be able to use all the stock front end parts that can be easily located from any dealer and many vendors. This cart drives amazing has a nice tight steering.
I am not worried about cutting the frame because I could just make new flat stock if I wanted to remove the lift. I have seen the Jakes Z lift and it doesn't come with the HD rear springs like the factory kit does. With the Transporter being a work horse wouldn't it already have HD springs on the rear?
The spindle kits seem to be everywhere and are not to expensive. The cart will be driven on dirt roads and a sand environment along the Chesapeake bay in VA. The roads can be rough at times and I am looking at putting on some larger than stock all terrain tires on a 10" wheel.
Thanks in advance for your input and suggestions.
