Awesome ride ralph. I sent you a PM with some questions. Also, what do you do with the space under the driver's seat?

Where are u at "ralph"? In AZ? I built one just like that (even same color) with a Honda v-twin and jakes double a-arm, it rode like a cadillac, and super fun to drive. Just so you know, you can put a RXV electric posi in there, then U no get stuck no more (just put one in a new drive with dana).

I'm in so cal just 30mins from la. I'm lucky I still have a little open space around me. Good to know about the posi I've been looking for one. I take that trail all the time no problem then I came up short on that turn and the front right tire hit a log I tried to power over it but just ended up buried.

Rode my G9 offroad for many years, best thing is cut sheave (gives lower gear to start out) and umax spring and HD kevlar belt from CPP. Make sure clutches are in good order first. 9hp aint much but you can get around just cant go up sand hills it spins and gets stuck because you are not going fast enough. Mostly wooded where I ride so better traction, sand really kills your speed too. But with large wide tires (22x12) I can ride over beach sand ok, just don't try to climb in loose sand. So I am sure you can ride around in a limo not much different, just don't expect it to do things that take a lot of power like hills, hills with lot of weight on the cart, etc. On flatter ground I could go just fine. I could creep up pretty steep hills with the cut sheave long as they were grass and not loose sand and it didn't spin. The clone actually spins more but if you hit it faster its more like an atv....clone is not all powerful but double a stock cart HP is a huge improvement.
