Default My 96 TXT Project

Here some pic's of the new project. She's ugly, but runs good and the price was right. I'll post more pictures as I go.

I could barely look at the cart due to the AWESOME truck in the back!

That was one of my projects from a few years ago. Carts are cheaper to build, but still fun.

So I have decided i'm goign to use these parts to rebuild my 94 Marathon. The front end on the blue cart is trashed. I'm going to mount the TXT controller and parts into the Marathon body. I will have to swap the motor as well.

What do you guys think?

Wait ....... a whole front end is pretty cheap. Are you sure you want to scrap a late model TXT to refurb a marathon?

I have a 96 TXT that I just took the front end out of. It is sitting in my garage looking for a new home...

Edit: not sure why it posts the pic upside down some times

I think that I like that three wheeler in the background. Oops, not what you were asking.

well i have both sitting there.

the 94 Marathon is mechanically perfect, just need electronics/batteries. Body is perfect. has rear seat.

the 96 txt front suspention is bent, steering mount is broke, body is rough, brake pedal and linkage is broke. but has good batteries, and runs good, as long as you have room to roll to a stop

so i figured that whats good from both, and make a nice cart.

Based upon current listings in this area, the TXT is worth more now and will continue to be worth more in the future. On the other hand, Marathon carts, in various stages of repair, are very cheap. I'm sure you could find all the parts you need on a cart that has a rusted body.
Just keeping an eye on the for sale section here would bring you all the TXT parts you mention.
