How the Diamond Kart lift works....
The Diamond Kart lift employs a unique lifting action. It lifts the rear of the kart via the lower rear bar. Many kart series insist on the rear bar being fitted anyway, as it aids rigidity and gives protection to the rear of the kart. If you are a user who prefers to run without, simply fit the rear bar so that it is free to move . This will have no effect on the karts handling at all but will allow you to use the kart lift efficiently.
The 'EURO' bumper
The Euro style new generation rear bumpers are thwarting the use of most kart lifts. The Diamond Kart lift does not suffer as it always lifts from the lower rear bar. We have specifically developed a bar that is fitted cleanly and easilty to the kart in addition to the plastic bumper. This is a strong metal unit, but which does not interfere in any way with the kart geometry.
Other lifts attempt to lift using the Plastic bumper. We STRONGLY recommend that you do not do this. These bumpers are not designed to take the loads involved. Our additional lift grab rails are a direct retro fit and are available as a seperate purchase if required!

As you can see, our lift bars are high quality and move to fit all karts. These do not affect the integrety of the chassis, alter dynamics or hinder the design of the Euro bumper. We genuinely believe that this is the ONLY way to lift a kart safely and without damaging the bumper or Kart!
