Back from the abyss as I haven't been here is a loooong time. 23 unread messages to sort through also.
Sorry to those people...
One of the things I like about my gen 3 performer up on the deck is the added height. The red SS below the deck still gets the lions share of the duty as it's much better protected from Mother Nature. With that, i created a simple solution to the lagging height.
Started with an old gasser which was destined for the dumpster, and cut 4.5" off of each leg.
Then took a hunk of pressure treated 2X2 and ripped it down to 1 1/8" to fit inside the frame legs.
Then cut the treated to 8"ish each and tapped them into the lifting legs until they bottomed out or reached the axle holes
Flipped the SS over to remove the wheels & casters
Then tapped the 4 leg extenders into place. With the axle in place, it prevents the wood from slipping into the axle space
Put the wheels & casters back on
And we're now 4.5" taller than before. With the treated cut pretty snug, I didn't need/use any fasteners to keep the lift kit in place.
Already lovin' the new height and I haven't even fired it up yet.
