    I’ve learned that the reason for your clearance issue is due to the front leaf springs. On those old txt’s the springs become weak. All you have to do is install new ones. Learned the hard way

    @Project Karr - Did you use 2014+ rocker panels with the Storm body kit? Only ones I've found on the internet for pre 2014 EZGOs are the diamondplate ones or direct replacements that have the chrome inlay piece like you originally had.

    Can you tell us the cost of the base cart? Plus upgrades? I think about doing this but I dont want to put 9 grand in it and I can only get 8 grand in return. it would be enjoyable doing this for resale but i dont want to lose money.

    • @projectkarr
      @projectkarr  27 дней назад

      Honestly if you’re looking to buy, fix and resale you’re probably better off finding a sub $800 cart that needs batteries and cleaning. It’s difficult selling these carts when you can buy new ones for $8k.

      Thanks a lot. I’m in the Visalia area. A friend of mine owns a business in Tulare (Battery Pro) where they build tons of carts and would probably be a better option since they know way more than me about all the different carts. And they can get a better price on parts.

Love the look, I have 5 older carts in our fleet and with the cost of new carts going up it looks like this would be a great option to revitalize these old ones.

    Most likely I'm too late but the transom looked tight to the center pontoon....being a plastic do you need some sort of padding between the to to avoid friction cutting the pontoon? BTW nice project....also next time you glue your flooring try "flapping" the vinyl as is laying face to face creating a cushion of air allowing you to "push" the vinyl into place.... sounds crazy but it works... I've handled very large cuts doing this.
