Default Re: Marathon Front Cowl - Appearance Upgrade

Spoke with Rod with randrgolfcars.com

Though i love to hear from these guys and their suggestions, i am not too sure how fair his assessment was..

He is saying it can be done but with a lot of time and hair to pull out. Yet, there is a few How-To's here to show how it can be done in one evening. so with that, i called the $50 craigslist ad and is 20 min from my house! He said it is a TXT body..

You guys are saying it will fit? if so, i will go get it but i need to read a how to on how to swap everything before. Just to be sure i am not getting in too over myhead.

The TXT front cowl is not that hard to change, but the rear body is alot more fab work to make it fit

It takes longer to remove the old front-body,(especially if you are trying to save it for reuse)than it does to fit and install the Txt cowl.

That's a very good deal tha5150. Glad you were able to secure it. But, as stated, the rear is a lot more work to retrofit. Basically a difference in the battery/seat cage. Here's a pic of my TXT frame. Compare it to your carts seat area and you will see what you are dealing with.

i told him i only wanted the front. he said he would let both go for $25. hard to say no to that! Though i may not want to put the back on. i am not sure i want to take on that project just yet. i just moved 2 weeks ago and now expecting my 3rd baby in October!

Either way, I want to swap the front in the near future. My buddy is going to finish up the camo vinyl on it in the next couple weeks, i have tires coming shortly and need to fab a lift kit and a rear set. that's enough to keep me busy for a bit for sure.
