    Bought a 2004 EZ-GO for the family in 2008 when my daughters were very young and just sold it now that they've grown up and moved on to cars and college. One of the best investments. They were turned loose to drive it at 10 and 8 and they learned a lot about life having that freedom. Put the lift and big tires on it as well and also bought a cheap musical air horn from Harbor Freight and the kids loved it. Great memories. Just went back and found the pic's from the day I brought it home and just after the lift kit/tire install with the girls sitting on it. So much nostalgia. What Dad's won't do for their families. Love it, Kyle! You are doing it right. Wish I had started a RUclips channel when my kids were young. You are going to cherish these when they get to be young adults and again when you can show these to your grandkids.

    Great video! I did the exact same thing to a Club Car years ago. Something you should consider is adding front disc brakes. With all the extra weight from the lift kit, tires, and rear passengers, it made a world of difference (added safety). Keep up the videos!

    Great job! New to your channel. If you are going to lift your cart, stay 4" or less. I put a 6" on my Yamaha with 23x10x14 tires and it's too tall and tippy. It will be even worse when I switch to lithium and the cart loses 250lbs. I'm going to modify my lift down to 4" by moving my spindles up 2" and shortening the rear shock mounts. Anyway, great video.
