New guy, just got my first cart!

ajcoop20 · 06-16-2012, 10:01 PM

Hey guys, im excited to say i picked up my first golf cart, a 93 club car DS. everything seams mechanically sound, had the same owner for the last 10yrs since it came off a local course. Ive got roughly 1,000$ im going to invest in this cart, im looking to turn this into the ultimate hunting buggy for my hilly farm.

Im at lift kit, tires, and wondering what else for maximum power to climb some steep trails. Eventually i think ill purchase a 4x4 kit for this cart just because it would be differnt and functional

Without further ado!

anyone have any ideas as far as hunting carts go? Further searching has led me to the spring/clutch mods which seem quite beneficial
