Description
Unlock the Full Potential of Your Yamaha G29/Drive
Jake’s Long Travel Suspension Kit is engineered specifically for 2007-2016 Yamaha G29/Drive Gas and Electric golf carts, delivering one of the smoothest and most capable rides available. Unlike a conventional lift kit that simply raises the cart, Jake’s completely replaces the factory front suspension with an advanced independent front suspension system designed for maximum comfort, stability, and suspension travel.
The updated external reservoir shocks increase oil capacity for improved cooling while reducing operating temperatures and shock fade during extended rides. Nitrogen-charged technology minimizes hydraulic fluid aeration, while adjustable compression and rebound settings allow you to dial in the suspension for neighborhood cruising, campground use, hunting property, or rugged off-road trails.
Built from fortified aluminum and proudly manufactured in the USA, Jake’s Long Travel Suspension Kit combines lightweight construction, premium engineering, and exceptional durability for years of dependable performance.
