2000.5 Club Car DS Build
I've been working on the old 2000.5 CC DS I picked up over a year ago. It had been sitting several years. Someone had run it into something and bent the control arms and broke the steering link end. I hoped there was nothing else wrong since it was obviously running when wrecked. I picked up some used parts and replaced the broken suspension parts.

It sat for awhile because I didn't have any batteries for it. I hesitated to buy some new ones until I knew what if anything was wrong with the electricals. I bought a new set of trojans for my other cart and put the old ones in this one. Voila!!! it runs great.  In the next few days I post some additional pics of the wheels I've ordered. The plan is to build a roadster with the Jake's windshield and Led lighting including headlights, taillights, turn signals, brake lights and daytime running lights. I also have a 36 volt series motor to give it a little extra speed. Comments are really appreciated. |

Re: 2000.5 Club Car DS Build
I received the 12s I ordered and got them mounted. What a difference wheels make.
 I also ordered some combination Daytime running lights/turn signals. I'm mounting them where the DS stock headlights mount. The plan is to have the DRL cut off when the turn signal is on like the newer cars do.    |

Re: 2000.5 Club Car DS Build
I got a few things accomplished yesterday. The headlights mount in the existing frame/body holes but when I tried to put the front bumper on it interfered with their brackets. I went through the bolt box and found some longer bumper bolts and added 1 1/4 inch spacers to move the bumper away from the frame. I think it looks pretty good. Everything is just trial fitted. Pay no attention to the headlights being aimed wrong. I hope to get to the taillights tomorrow.
