Swapping front leaf to coil overs. CC DS (pics)
Recently lifted my 98 CC DS with a ebay 6" lift. Ride was not great but with 12 psi it was not too bad but no articulation at all. I had some Harley shocks and wanted to see if I could make it work. Plan is to do a 2 link in the back along with the front coil overs. here are the raw parts.
This is what I started with. this was the first mock up but the shocks were at too much of an angle and would not hold the weight. ended up widening the top mounting bracket to make the shocks more upright. works great, nice ride. and at the softest setting it holds the cart up right where it started. And great articulation. Now on to the back...... |

Did you notice any problems with your steering after you did the switch?
