Default Suspension UP-grade

I had been experiencing a constant rubbing even after installing heavy duty springs on my '99 clubcar, but the solution was as simple as installing monroe air shocks on the rear of my cart. Man what an improvement in ride quality and the only tool that I had to buy was a nut slitter from my local auto store to easily remove the factory shocks that were rusted up bad. Installation took less than 1 hour and air lines fit tightly up into area behaind bag well.

Do you have one fill stem or two? I tried one and had a problem when one person was one the cart the air would bleed from the left shock to the right. Ended up using a valve to close the two lines. Open it to fill both and then close it to close crossover.

That way you could put more air in the driver's side to compensate for the fat guy driving alone

I only use 1 stem, bujt the reason for that is to allow air to flow from 1 shock to the other to aid in keeping the tires in contact with the ground when traveling in the rough terrain that I hunt in.

Very interesting, so at low speeds, sneaking to a tree stand or blind ???? Helps with traction ??? and keeping what your hauling from bouncing all over ???

Definitly helps with loads. I have a flip seat on the rear and with a 250 lb. deer, my 130 lb. son and my 300 lbs. we move along just fine.

That's really cool. Do you have a anti slip in the rear end or just the stock setup?

I installed a bolt on anti slip and it is awesome. This CC coould pull down a house it seems like. And if I do manage to stick it I mounted a 3000 lb. superwinch on the front and wired it up on 16 volts so it pulls good too.
