1986 Marathon progress

Redmonster · 06-28-2022, 10:18 AM

I got lucky enough to find something that was an easy fit. Im not familiar with Medalist rearends but I would suspend the cart, grind off the original spring hanger plates and weld them where needed. Also might be easier to find an older rear end. I had a very hard time installing heavy duty springs on mine....

Thanks for the info. I figured it out. For the conversion I basically had to turn my Marathon into a Club Car IQ. Found a 5 wire PB8 box. 3 for the pedal and 2 for the micro switch. Do you have pics of the mount you made for your POT?
