you can look in the classified section for parts.
if you are looking for original parts, you may find someone who recently lifted their cart and no longer has any use for the original spindles, and front leaf spring .... it all depends what items you need, you didnt specify in your post.

However you should get more replies if you repost this in the clubcar section.

That's our second sparky sighting in a week. Maybe a function that if you enter ##V anywhere in your post it automatically won't allow you to post?

for the record, we don't knock .....


As to parts though, most older cart dealers (ones that have been around for 20 or 30 years) tend to have "salvage yards" or at least an old barn or two full of cart carcasses, parts, etc ... Might be worth a search in the area for Club Car dealers, and I'd be willing to bet that with a couple of phone calls (I know, it's hard to remember what those are like in this age of digital communication) you could easily find or be referred to someone who would be willing to sell you the parts that you need (and as a bonus, that generally will involve a road trip, rolling up your sleeves with some tools, an afternoon of invaluable "cart chat" with a tried and true veteran, and dare I say possibly a 6-pack to make the day go a bit smoother ...)

Good luck with finding your parts, and sleep tight tonight ..... :)

Hey Rmelvin,

All kidding aside, a regular daily search on craigslist, kijiji, or any other local classified sites may turn up a donor cart. Even place a WTB ad yourself, stating what you want and how much you want to play.

That's how I ended up with my cart - a $200 WTB ad on Kijiji.

Based on the age of your cart, thinking a donor cart may be the way to go, but make sure you state you need a "complete" cart in your ad.

Hmmmmm...interesting thought. Wonder if I should go post something about an E-Z-Go gas cart in the CC sparky forum. Be interesting to see if those CC guys are as helpful as us EZGo guys.
