Lifted club car ds 2003

LESLIELRD

We have a lifted club car. We added a back seat and new rear leaf springs. It rides really rough and the steering jumps sometimes..turning the car. It feels like we are driving an old antique car. Suggestions? What type of front end should we get? Thank You in advance for any help.

What lift is on it now? is the toe set correctly? should be 1/8"-1/4" in - that can cause wierd handling issues if not correct.

Toe-in Adjustment
1. On a level surface, roll the vehicle to a stop with the front wheels pointed straight ahead. Do not turn the
steering wheel again during this procedure.
2. On each front tire, mark (as closely as possible) the center of the tread face that is oriented toward the
rear of the vehicle. The marks should be the same height from the floor as from the bottom surfaces of
the vehicle frame I-beams.
3. Measure the distance between the marks on the rear-facing surfaces of the tires, and then roll the vehi-
cle forward one and one-half wheel revolutions until the marks appear on the forward-facing surfaces of
the tires at about the same height from the floor (Figure 7-16, Page 7-13).
4. Measure the distance between the marks on the forward-facing surfaces of the tires.
NOTE
• THE FRONT MEASUREMENT MUST BE LESS THAN THE REAR MEASUREMENT.
5. Subtract the measurement on the front of the tires from the measurement on the rear of the tires. The
difference is the toe-in. Proper toe-in is 1/8 to 3/8 of an inch (3.2 to 9.5 mm).
6. If adjustment is necessary, loosen the lock nut on each tie rod ball joint and rotate the tie rod to increase or decrease toe-in
