Re: Finally got the lift in
What motor do you have?I have some easy mods for the 2pg clutches,cost you less than $5,and it will feel like a different cart.

Re: Finally got the lift in
Remove the cover on the Drive-Clutch,(can be done in the cart,might have to loosen the engine-mounts a bit,but belt can stay on),Add 3/16"-1/4" shim under the spring,against the clutch(not the cover).Next,remove the Driven-Clutch.Separate and remove shim between the sheaves.Next,add 3/16"-1/4" shim under the spring and reassemble.I did this on my cart 2 yrs.ago,with 22" tires,Huge difference over stock.If you have stock tires you can skip the shim-removal on the Driven if you want,this lowers first gear.Shimming it delays upshift to high.A few weeks ago i swapped out the belt for a shorter one,No difference,actually feels like it slips taking off.Hope this helps.

Re: Finally got the lift in
I agree with Steveb, the front tire is NOT a good cup holder!!
The tires look GREAT!! I just ordered some 22x11-8 and a 4" block lift, CANT WAIT TO GET THEM! Keep up the work on the cart!! pachanga90, does that Mod work on the 3pg clutch too? Jon |

Re: Finally got the lift in
by shim, do you just mean a nice sized washer? anything that'll compress the spring against the clutch a bit more?

Re: Finally got the lift in
[QUOTE=M.Gilbert3;509120]I'de been waiting and waiting for it to warm up so i could put my lift in. Finally just decided to do it in the snow.
I made my own drop axle, cut the spindles off and welded them to a 1/2in thick piece of steel. I just used spring spacers for the back and bought some new napa shocks, i don't like the look with the shock extenders. I have the front half of the block poor mans lift left but idno if i want to lift the front more and cock it off. Enjoy the pics. And I won't work on my cart here in south Texas when it gets below 50 degrees. Hope you didn't get too cold. |
