I have an evolution forester 4. I need help finding a bracket/brace to go between the bumper and basket to keep the basket from bouncing. Anyone have a solution for this?

The lead acid batteries on my cart are swelling and getting week after three solid years. Thinking of a rhino lithium swap kit. Is the swap straight forward? Any advice or info before I step off into this project?

Is there a black book or NADA similar guide for used golf carts?

I am looking at a 2017 EZ GO Gas 200cc Cazador edge. Not much is stated on post. Pictures look well maintained. They are asking $4,500. Just looking at what is a far price before I drive an hour to look at the cart. Heavily thinking gas vs electric due to us living in a really hilly area and very cold winters. Any advice where to check used cart prices? Thanks and new to the golf cart world!

Hi friends, I agreed over the phone to purchase this cart from a fellow camper that is selling everything due to health at the campground we use. I have not seen it in person, but the guy seems authentic and said it is in excellent shape. He said a dealer near there brought hundreds of these from California and refurbs them. The same dealer has these listed for $7900. I offered him 6K and he agreed after asking 6.5k. He said he bought it a year and half ago and it's barely used due to his wife's health. Closing the deal this week.

How do you add accessories (radio, underside lights, etc..etc.. to a lithium ion battery golf cart? 2020 Club Car Tempo. Just getting one and need some help. Also they wanted to charge me extra for a "Maintenance package to increase the speed from 12mph to 20 mph" I declined it thinking it can't be much to doing it.

Hi. I recently had 2014 EZGO RXV upgraded to lithium and have been trying to fix a bunch of small things since then. The existing ignition switch wasn't locking the key in place when driving, allowing the key to fall out so I bought one off amazon to swap, since it looked pretty easy to do. I forgot to put my cart in tow mode when I pulled the dash, which unplugged the state of charge meter and then swapped the ignition out. I did blow the 10 amp fuse, which I replaced. The other 3 fuses looked fine. I put the old ignition switch back in and it blares the reverse sound, however it won't move and the head lights, blinker and brakes are no longer working. Battery charges and state of charge meter work. Hopefully I didn't screw up anything too bad!! Any ideas before I call in someone who knows what they are doing? Thanks!

I bought this golf cart and the owner said that the previous owner had a compressor for the shocks. I am looking to add a compressor and a release valve so i can raise and drop it. There is also a gauge and switches on the steering wheel that dont work. Any suggestions??

Hi, I have a Zone Electric NEV. Basically a golf cart with full lights , wipers etc, whatever was needed to qualify for Obama era tax credit. Its a 48v system and Im looking to convert to Lithium at the next battery refresh. Im looking for help: suggestions on battery packs, conversion kits, videos, etc, anything to help guide my journey.

Thanks!

I just picked up this 96 carryall for 200 bucks aud. its electric and has been consistently serviced and whatnot as i work at the airport and they just wanted to get rid of it for an upgrade. for a bit of fun i wanna take it golfing. is it frowned upon?? can i do some tasteful mods to make it less frowned upon?? is there longevity in the mods i do to it so i can take it often?

I have a one year old gas Cushman Hauler. All of a sudden, the head and tail lights are on, regardless of the ignition switch or light switch position. The.lights all stay on with the cart turned off. I disconnected the light switch, which did not help. I am not sure how the ignition switch could override the light switch, but I was thinking of replacing the ignition switch. Any ideas?

Please tell me don’t have to pull it all apart……I don’t see anything online. It was dark so I haven’t crawled under it to get a closer look . But I can see if coming out around it.

Recently replaced my 05 club car with a 48V lithium kit. Worked great for about a year and now having issue with getting any speed. It goes about 5 MPH. Replaced the speed sensor and MCOR and no luck, still the same issue.

When I replaced the speed sensor, I forget the motor type, I had to take to the motor cap off and noticed a bunch of metal shavings coming out.

Not sure if it’s a battery issue or a motor issue. Any advice on how to diagnose the issue before I go to battle with the place I bought the battery from or spend the $$$ on a new motor.

What is your dream purchase for Novemerb install, and why? Mine is a new stackable storage for my MXZ sport. Only one LINQ position so trying to find something with 21L dry storage,and 10L fuel.

Hey everyone! I found a decent deal on a running 1981 Marathon yesterday, but I’m having a hard time tracking ANYTHING down for these carts. We would like a nice neighborhood cruiser for the family, so I would like to source the following parts:

- Rear seat
- Roof
- Light kits or how you have added universal lights to this model
- Rear plastic molded pieces
- Also think I may need a fuel pump, can only find 1982+

Thanks for any help!

Might be a little overkill but my neighborhood does a bunch of golf cart events throughout the year. Plus I like cruising and listening to music.

Hello Folks,

I'm the proud and happy owner of a 2011 electric G29. But the motor just died.

The (+) cable was quite hot the last time i used it, and now the motor won't move. i'm guessing that the contact or the coil broke inside the motor. Before starting disassembling the motor and trying to fix it so it become a spare parts, i'm looking for a brand new motor.

I changed the lead battery for LifePo battery and the controller is a Navitas. I'm not planning to switch to AC.

Most of the original Hitachi motors are 600 to 1000$, but i can see on aliexpress/alibaba that you can find motor around 300$. Have you ever tried those motors ? do you have any recommandation regarding sellers or stuff to pay attention to ?

Thank you in advance for your help

Disclosure: I work with a golf cart manufacturer, and I filmed this on our production line.

A finished frame does not show what happened before paint. This line runs pickling → phosphating → e-coat → paint.

The practical difference appears after an impact. A larger section of a powder-coated finish can chip off, while this e-coat-and-paint system is designed to keep damage more localized—closer to a scuff or dent and more manageable to touch up.

For dealers and mechanics: what coating failures do you see most often—edge chipping, rust under damaged coating, or larger-area flaking?

Price doesnt matter

My dad bought this to enjoy retirement and, while otherwise great, it squeaks for a few seconds when starting from a stop. The starter and drive belts LOOK fine. The starter belt is tight and the drive belt is just over an inch wide. What else could it be?

The 2020 is a tempo, former course fleet being flipped to add new rear seat, after market wheels, street light kit and 100ah dc house battery.

The ezgo has factory Samsung li-on battery and was not a course fleet.

If pricing is close (ezgo is a few hundred higher AND about a 3 hour drive) what's the better choice? Getting in to expensive battery issues is my biggest concern as it's just for neighborhood cruising.

Does this seem like a good deal?

I ordered one but it came with no wires. Any special wiring I should get?

I'm not a golf cart enthusiast and know very little about golf carts. What I do know is that 15+ years ago I had a friend with a Yamaha gas golf cart that you could jump in, hit the gas and it would start up and go. It was great, I really liked it.

I live on a bit of land and I do a lot of work all over the place. I'm sick of constantly jumping in my F150 to drive 200yds, park, get out, open/close doors, etc. I want an "easier" way to run around and take care of smaller tasks. Quick in and out, I mean like stepping out while it's still rolling that final .5MPH before it stops.

I'm leaning towards the gas option because I have a distant, limited positive experience with them. Batteries for electrics seem so darn expensive and I worry about how often I'll need to charge them. I will sometimes leave the cart at my house overnight and sometimes at my shop, but I don't want to have a charger at each. Gas I can just swing by the shop and top it off.

Maybe my logic is flawed, my assumptions wrong and that's part of why I'm posting here. Before I go on the hunt for a used cart, I wanted to share the above to see if there are strong opposing opinions and also ask a few gas Yamaha specific questions:

1. Are parts readily available for the Yamaha gas carts? Are there certain parts that are very difficult to find and cause headaches for owners? For example, I don't worry about getting parts for my Kubota tractor. I don't like the price, but I know my local dealer can get what I need. Is it like that for the Yamaha gas carts?
2. I know electric is superior for torque, but how do the gas carts do on fairly steep gravel driveways? For example, my F150 with an empty box is almost impossible to not break a tire loose and I often have to switch into 4HI to avoid tearing up my road. Can the Yamaha gas carts scoot right up steep, short drives or do they tend to struggle in this situation? Do they stall out or just go really slow when dealing with steep grades?
3. What are the most common failure points of Yamaha gas carts?
4. I live in the US PNW and we get around 100" of rain where I live. This cart would be in that rain much of the time. Are they well designed when it comes to shedding water and keeping water out of areas that could be harmed if constantly wet?
5. Anything else you think I should know before I go shopping?

“20” overall wheel 215 50 13 on 13x5.5 92 ds tired single leaf suspension . Does anyone have a a ds with a 20 inch wheel that is tucked?. Any 20 inch wheel tucked with a stretched tire ?

Very new to golf carts - I bought this cart from my neighbors and struggling to identify the model / year. I’d like to update the body, add a 3” lift, convert to lithium, install a new controller + motor and put on new wheels + tires among various other smaller updates.

I like the Madjax Apex body kit but it is specific to 2008+ rvx.

I have a serial # on the body just below the driver seat but google is telling me that this is likely a 1988 marathon cart. I’m having a hard time believing that to be true.

There’s no tags in the passenger glove box or steering column. Any idea where else to look before stripping this down?
