Default Re: Saving a 94 Medalist

Just for everyone's edification, IIRC, the Medalist began as a metal bodied cart and the model ended with plastic panels. I'm thinking 94.5 was the changeover....if memory serves....

So how important is it to get heavy duty leaf springs for the front of the cart if I plan to get the bed, and life as well as wheels and tires? I understand the rear is pretty important due to the added weight of the bed, but I'm not sure about the front. I am going to get coilovers for the front as well.

the front will work well on stock spings. they made the metal body ones up until 98. i think they just wanted to get rid of their inventory!

if you are interested, i have a 5" lift frt. axle.

So its just the front lift, or is it an all around lift with a front axle?

It's a Medalist body - the 2nd pic in post #9 is skewed and looks like a different front cowl. Easier to see the cowl in the first pic...

That's a Medalist for sure

It's gonna look great lifted!

I am ready to drop money into it, but I have a boat and a motorcycle I want to do the same with.

Default Re: Saving a 94 Medalist

Got my leaf springs on this afternoon, and what an improvement in the stance and steering. Took the cart up and down the road and it runs between 7.5-9.5 mph i am going to fully charge the batteries and aee what I get. That has to get better, I want to be in the 20+ mph.

Here is a pic i took tonight...
