what do people (you) do for the rear suspension? I work at a golf course and it seems like there is nothing you can do for them. Looks great, you need some spinners now!

I don't think that roll cage will pass the new rules

I installed some heavy duty leafs and the kit also has spacers (blocks) included as well. It is a better ride off-road but not anything like the front. They just came out with a rear kit that uses the same coil over shock and it's a 4-link sort of...maybe more like a swingarm and it eliminates the rear leafs. However, it's not cheap. I couldn't afford both so I went with the front system first.

They actually make spinners for 8" golf cart wheels....I'll stick with the off-road style!

Sadly I have seen one with spinners and thank you for staying with off-road style. Where did you find the front system for your cart?

Are those pictures at Echo?

[Waldo]

I got everything from www.golfcartgiant.com. Actually picked up the product instead of paying enormous shipping. Turns out the guy is in south county near me. The guys name is Jake and he makes a pretty good deal if you buy several things.

Kritter...Those pictures are at the Rio Del Colorado down river from Echo about 2 miles. Still on the Cali side. Same company owns Rio, Echo, Windmill, Windmill II, Desert Riviera, and some others.

I just attached the front suspension from a Kawasaki Bayou 300 to the front of my 94 EZ/GO, I have a Yamaha 433 snowmobile engine with the gas cart shifter rear end for reverse. I drove it around a little with the original front suspension but at about 50 MPH it was hairy. I haven't finished the Kaw. front yet but I'll post the results. Anyone want to ask questions, I'll share the problems and remedies.
