How to level up my 2005 Ezgo

THUNDERBASES · 07-13-2010, 07:34 AM

Ok guys, I know I saw a thread on how to level up the cart?? Just cannot seem to find it. If not, can anyone help with this? Just want to raise the rearend just a bit to level up the cart. Pics of how you did it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

What kind of rear leaf springs do you have on it, if they are stock with a rear seat, add some 4 leaf heavy duty ones and that will lift it up by just adding them.

Yes, they are stock leaf springs. So all I have to do is change leaf springs? Is that the only way? Sorry for the dumb ?'s I can handle the electrical stuff. Not as savvy with the mech. stuff. Thanks LH

It would be the best way, if your rear leafs are already sagging, then adding some HD rear leafs will level it out, if not raise it a tad. It is just a couple of 9/16" nuts and bolts, a floor jack and jack stand you could have it done in an hour.

if your stock leafs are sagging they are on the verge of breaking. I have seen many sets break. the stock leafs are designed for golf courses. Install the HD springs and you will be good to go. If you have a rear seat you will be level if you have nothing on the rear than it will raise it 1/2 inch or so.

I added a leaf from a mobile home spring set. They are the same width. Took the small bottom leaf out of the ezgo and replaced it with a stiffer longer leaf and got 1-1/2 lift.

Boke, yours will work on an 05 as well. Just FYI.
