Steering/alignment club '94 club car

Swartz · 08-01-2008, 09:51 AM

I am an idiot in a lot of things and golf carts are no different. I have a 94 club car that pulls to the right. I have read posts but still do not understand what I need to do to align the cart. I am not very good at understanding what parts are by name. Any help will be appreciated. The more detailed the better.

Thanks for any advice that you can offer.

Very first solution. . .check tire pressure, make sure they are equal. After this measure the spring on the same location of each side and make sure they are equal..

If that all proves ok, lemme know I'll keep going.

Thanks for the welcome and suggestion. I adjusted the tire pressure and it is a lot better. If I may pose a second question, is is notmal for the steering to "grab" or get a little more difficult as you turn it and then "release" or turn more easily?

Doesn't sound too normal, you probably need to grease the spindles, and tie rod ends. Then you may need to loosen the bellows on the steering rack and grease the rack.

Does this cart have a 'Z' lift. I had a Z lift CC once the tie rod drug on the frame at times.

I'm not sure about the z lift, it is a stock cart but it does not appear tat anything is rubbing.

How do I grease the stearing rack? I found 5 zirks that I greased.

I loosen the clamp on the long bellows or boot on the steering unit. Turn the wheels left and pull the boot back to expose the rack. Put good quality grease on it top and bottom. Replace the boot clamp.

I can get to the drivers side just fine, any secret to the passenger side clamp? I can't reach it or fit my screwdriver in there because of the angel of the screw. Or is it a matter of the grease will get there the more I turn the wheels back and forth?
