Description
Take Your Yamaha Drive2 Electric Beyond a Standard Lift Kit
Jake’s Long Travel Suspension Kit is engineered specifically for 2017-Up Yamaha Drive2 Electric golf carts, delivering one of the smoothest and most capable rides available. Rather than simply increasing ride height like a conventional lift kit, this premium system completely replaces the factory front suspension with an independent front suspension (IFS) designed to maximize wheel travel, ride comfort, and control.
The updated external reservoir shocks provide additional oil capacity for superior cooling, reducing shock fade during long rides while maintaining consistent damping across rough terrain. Nitrogen-charged shocks minimize hydraulic fluid aeration while fully adjustable compression and rebound settings allow you to dial in the suspension for everything from neighborhood cruising to hunting property, campgrounds, and off-road adventures.
Designed and assembled in the USA, Jake’s Long Travel system combines premium engineering with durable fortified aluminum construction to provide years of dependable performance.
