Default Plowmans YDR Extreme Lifted Performance Kit

Hi Guys, I'm very interested in the Plowmans YDR Extreme Lifted Performance Kit for my 2008 Drive. I just watched the video and was very impressed, but I have one question. Was the performance gained from this kit the only upgrade that made the buggie in the video go 29 mph? I'd love to hear from the board members who have this kit installed.

Looking forward to your feedback. Thanks!

As far as im aware thats all that was done. Im sure the governor was either bypassed or ziptied all the way for max speed. Don should be a available monday so im sure he will chime in.

Last time I talked with Don, he told me that lifted carts require a different clutch setup, due to the effective final ratio change brought on by the bigger tires. His lifted performance kit takes that into consideration. Likely it will help more with the low end power. Increased top end speed will come from the larger tires.

Yes you send him both the primary and secondary clutches for him to work his magic touch to them for the most bottom end power and top speed, along with belt, secondary spring, air filter, jets, and air box mods. Totally worth the money if your looking for extra performance. Several of us have already sent some componants last week for him to work on. Cant wait.

I called Don and asked what I needed for my cart. I have a 2011 YDR. He told me my clutch was fine and didn't need to rework it. So he sent me a new belt, the jet kit and new air-cleaner. I installed it all and I have to say, the cart is a lot smoother and runs good. It has better low end torque. I zip tied the governor in back and am able to get about 21 MPH out of it. Mine is lifted with a Jake's kit and has 22x11x10 tires. I am not sure how they got 29 MPH out of that cart in the video, but I know I would LOVE to have mine do that!!! When I get my house sold and I move, I will be getting back to Don and figuring this out. I have to say that their kits are great. But most importantly, their customer service, on a scale of 1-10 is a 10. They first sent the wrong belt and when I called the next week to ask why i couldn't get it on, they had realized it and had the new one in the mail already. Great people to work with. Good luck on your cart. It looks nice. Love the YDR.
