Advice Needed on Disc Brakes
Long time reader, first time poster.... Great Site!
I recently purchased a 2007 Club Car Precedent that with a few changes I have rolling 25-27 mph. It has 14" wheels and a rear seat so there has been significant weight added for the stock brakes to be effective. I have read numerous posts on the site today that describe front or rear, mechanical or hydraulic, 2-wheel or 4-wheel disc brake options, but there really hasn't been anything definitive as to which would be best. I did see a gentleman from GA (Sunoco, I believe) that I guess built his own rear wheel, hydraulic set for his DS and planned to do some for Precedents, but there wasn't any additional info on whether he did or not. Anyway, and advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! |

Re: Advice Needed on Disc Brakes
ScottyB has a manual disc brake setup that is a bolt on and uses the same cables as the drum brakes...I am going to order a set soon. Seems like the price is around $250 and installation should be just a bolt on.

In the meantime, if you get a set of these mechanical sets from ScottyB, let me know how they work out if you don't mind. I am definitely interested in a brake upgrade. |

Re: Advice Needed on Disc Brakes
ScottyB,
Thanks for the professional insight. I just checked out your site and I have a follow-up question. I have a 3" Jakes lift kit on my cart; would that require the cable extensions or are they just needed for the much more common 6" lift kits? SP |

Re: Advice Needed on Disc Brakes
You won't need cable extension with a 3" lift.
