Long Travel Alignment??

chopndroptx

I really have no clue when it comes to alignments, I am mechanicly inclined though.

I do not have the wheels yet and it will be a while.

I just ordered and installed a long travel kit from Allsports for my Yamaha G22 and would like to get it aligned as much as possible before I get the wheels.

Anyone have any tips for me? Im sure you need to have the wieght on it first. But close would be good, and then tips on when I get the wheels would be awsome! Thanks!

Hi Chop, Got this from ruedy, adjusted mine this way worked great, You will need the wheels and tires on it to get it aligned right. Hope this Helps.

You want an 1/8" to a 1/4" toe-in measured at the same point on the tires or rims both front and back. I use a tape measure and go off the rim lip but sometimes that can be a PIA to do, i've heard of guys using a curtain rod for doing it (always thought this was a great idea) and some using a string. main thing is to have the front of the rim about 1/8" less than the back, 1/4" if you measure on the outside of the tire. on your model cart you only have the one bar to adjust and you can do it jacked up or sitting on the ground.

the later txt carts (94.5-01.5, an ST models) need to be sitting on the ground preferably with some weight in it, both tie rods need adjusted equal amounts.

The 2001.5 and up with the rack and pinion on the axle weldment has only 1 adjustment bar can be done like the 1st one.
