Re: Stiffer ride.
Are you sure you need it? I just replaced the shock on my cart, while give the entire cart a make over, found a new OEM shock . I have had a couple adults in the back of my cart on a few long rides , doesn't have any seats in the back, but it sure seemed to handle just fine, no bottoming out issues at all. What are you hauling boat trailer,etc?

Re: Stiffer ride.
I know the shock now is bad it bottoms out. This is what I'm towing with it.

Re: Stiffer ride.
Does anyone make an air shock or air bags that would fit? That way you could fill it up when needed but not ruin the empty ride.

Re: Stiffer ride.
here's a link to vintage:
vintagegolfcartparts.com/cgi-bin/ccp5/cp-app.cgi?usr=50X8845928&rnd=1592400&rrc=N&cip=97.83 .6.31&pg=ste_cat&startrow=30&searchstr=&searchrpp= 30&ref=harley_davidson_steering&cat= I purchased the shock on this page Part # st105, It sure stiffened up the back of my cart. I'm sure if the length and the stud holes are the same, and it doesn't have a spring wrapped around it and it clears the frame, you should be able to mount it in your cart. |

Re: Stiffer ride.
Ouch, I believe they were a sponsor at one time on BGW, that's how I found them. I'll have to do better checking on sponsors before posting links. Thanks for the heads up Rib.
