Best rack for atv front on G9?

sho305

I've read different racks used from CC to buggie racks. I looked at a newer yamaha with a stock rack and jakes lift on it, a G22 or something. Anyone know what would be the best (and available) to convert to with an atv front? I can weld brackets and all. Think the issue is the G9 column is solid into the steering box, so I have no column mount like a cart with a stock rack and universals in the column would. There seems to be no good way to get the geometry right with this stock box the way I figure it, other than possibly moving the box and column so why not upgrade.

Hit 37mph gps with the cart this weekend and think its fast enough, clearly could use a better front though and wanted to do an atv front for a while. I ride trails mostly so something more precise and better riding would be ideal, does not need a ton of travel but depends on what front I find.

I read a thread the other day about this swap I better go find it when I get a minute thinking it was a CC rack used on a yamaha.

Here's mine.

Start at post #55, then read from there. I changed it up quite a bit from the original setup. Post #112 shows the parts list. I used a EZGO TXT steering column and a sand rail rack unit. It works flawlessly. Super tight turning radius too, like 11 feet total. One regret is not mounting the column up a few more inches higher, I actually had to notch my gas pedal because it hit the lower right mount bolt.

It was a real pain in the azz, but it works great!!!!

I think so, crazy guy that has it is always tearing up and down the road really fast, making dust, spinning tires, doing donuts like a little kid....you know.

Nice cart, nice steering wheel even. I have some catching up to do. I must be stuck on functionality as my cart has no bling at all.


Slonomo- I think yours is the one I was thinking about. Going to have to do the same thing to this....another fun project!

It was a sucky long project with alot of detours....totally worth the work though. I am loving it right now! I haven't ridden in a cart or utv that handles this quick and tight....

I looked at that G22 again it does have a strut type front, but would be hard to change mine over to something like that. I will have to see what I can buy an atv front for around here. Shop up some racks, but the G22 rack looks nice.
