Re: cpp e-z-go bb cradle
ok gave tom a holler he said take it apart and check it out..... soooo johnny 5 disassembled it ... looked at the heim joint and 2 part coupling actually looked at the bolt hole ...the hole on mine is about a .501 or 1/2 inch and the bolt was a standard 3/8 size Anybody ever looked at thier's and checked it out when you built it?

Re: cpp e-z-go bb cradle
those were the couplings i mentioned.... didn't know they were misalignment spacers...lol ... yeah the the hole on the inside of those were 1/2 inch and my bolt was 3/8 inch making it have a clunking noise when you hit the gas tom said he had never had that problem even with high hp use ....so i put a washer on each side on the inside of the mount and lock washers on the outside of the frame mount seems solid now only time will tell if the fix works tom said he was gonna check one of his and see what size it is his customer sevice is great too !!!
