Default 2002 G22--Plowman's Performance Kit

We've had this cart for almost a year, and you can read about that, here.
http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/gas-y...wifes-g22.html

After replacing both sheaves and installing a U-max spring, I felt that it was lacking something in climbing ability. Top speed wasn't that great, either. I talked with Don about what would be the best thing for this cart, and wound up getting the Performance Kit with an orange spring. Everything in one package and it worked out great. More torque than the U-max spring, climbs better and speed seems to be higher. It doesn't slow down going up the hill down the road anymore. I'm not sure I could be any happier. Just need to get the body in for paint...

Sorry the Umax spring didn't out for you Dave. Now the members have a new "trick" spring and all they have to do is call Don at Plowmans

The U-max spring would have been OK with carb and air filter changes. After reading the reports from members here, I gave it a shot. The machined clutch seems to make a big difference.

I hope to get the body to the paint shop on Monday. The light kit worked out great.
