I'll post pics when I'm "legal...."

I just picked up a 2016 G29 carb version. It has a 3” lift and 22” tires. Clutch and all is stock to my knowledge and it does 17mph per my phone’s GPS in a field with 3 on board which is fast enough lol. Just curious if you have stock clutching? So happy with this cart and it’s the most comfy ride of the ones I’ve had. A family member has a EZGO Valor and it’s nice but the G29 is much better in my opinion. I drove his before buying mine...

I’m going to assume the clutch is stock as I believe it was originally a cart from a golf course.

As she currently sits (except that I added side mirrors). Adding the Madjax Havoc brush guard and some nerf bars this weekend. Stereo will be next.

New member to the club, as I just purchased a 2021 PTV. My build so far includes upgraded seats, vented windshield, 3 sided over the top enclosure, sand bottle, mirrors, cooler, seat belts and removing factory hub caps (too much chrome for the color scheme IMO). Thinking about buying other hubcaps that are pictured. I zip-tied the governor to about 3-4 threads left, which gives me 23 mph level ground and 26 downhill. I've also removed the underneath panel (I guess it added to the "quietech") to increase air flow to and around motor. There was so much heat generated due to the foam wrapped areas and panel that I felt like I had heated seats, which would have been nice in the winter but it can't be good for the motor and other mechanical parts long term.

A few updates:

1. added MJFX brush guard (still have some mounting mods to do, but pretty solid as is)
2. added Boss bluetooth receiver, 500w amp, Pyle LED speakers (they are terrible, I will be replacing them with something else)
3. added LED light bar in front
4. added rocker switch panel. first (back) switch to control main power for accessories. second to control LED light bar in front, third to control LED underglow lighting (not yet installed), fourth to control LED speakers and cab lighting (not yet installed). rocker switch panel also had volt meter and two usb ports. installed second usb port on right side of dash for passengers.
5. installed front and rear retractable seat belts.

pretty close to done (yeah right!), and happy with all results with the exception of the speakers. my phone almost sounds as good....
