CCP header(no-lift) installed physical dimensions -ClubCar DS/FE290/350-
I have been busy making the mounting brackets for the bed lift actuator I bought to upgrade my '06 carryall Turf1.
Although I intend on getting a CCP performance exhaust I'm forced to put off actually buying the header/muffler until later this spring, but would like to avoid making a mistake in placement of these mounting brackets. I tried talking to the technical guy at CCP about clearance issues I might run into with their muffler box and his responses weren't all that helpful. If someone out there with the header system installed on their cart could record a few particular measurements it would be really helpful. I'd like to learn the distance from the right frame to the left most end of the muffler.(looking at it from the rear) I also need to know how far it measures from the transaxle housing to the rearmost end of the muffler box. Hope someone can help, |

Still working on other aspects, biding my time.
I'd bet that the answers lurk out there in BGW world somewhere..... |

Well... I guess I should apologize for not responding to your PM, or this thread.
To be honest? I haven't had that kit on my cart of over 5 years now, so I can't give you any measurements. It's kind of hard to visualize... so bear with me! I get that you don't want to install the lift actuator in the center, or drivers side of the bed, but, I don't get why? (clearance issues?) Just thinking out loud here... To me, it seems that after removing the stock muffler, the drivers side would have plenty of space for the actuator. (Again... maybe I'm not seeing what you are!) The best I can recollect, the CPP muffler is about 4" deep, and mounts to the center-right of the transaxle, with a 1/2" gap between the two. but that's really all I have! I know you've seen them before, but I'll post what few pics, and one video that I have to try to give you some perspective of what the kit looks like installed. Wish I could help more!

Thanks for the reply.
Centering the lift cylinder would be optimal so that putting axial torque to the bed was minimized, but from your video I don't think that would be possible with the header's muffler box location. I already figured I'd have to offset the mounts to the left (driver's) side, but really would like to keep the mounting as close to center as possible. Springtime expenditures are always close to overwhelming on a ranch situation, so I've just had to wait to buy the header until I've recovered from that somewhat. |

Bump-
I want to finish the dump bed lift cylinder project and really needed the muffler box location & dimensions before I finalize installing my mounting brackets. One last plea for help with these measurements, then I'll just hafta' accelerate the header purchase ahead of other pressing concerns I guess. |
