Gas Golf Cart for Hunting

[clittle97]

I am looking for a gas golf cart and I am wanting to lift it for hunting is there any other brand that is better? What make and model golf carts should I be looking for? Thanks!

In my opinion any of the big 3 (E-Z-GO, Club Car and Yamaha) gas carts are all good carts. EZGO's seem to have more accessories available. If you were looking at electric I would say EZGO but all 3 of the big 3 gas carts are reliable. It boils down to which style you like and the best deal you can get.

I like the looks of the ez go best but looks like the yamaha has a bigger engine are they alot faster than the ezgo

Ive had 2 Club Car DSs, 1 EZGO Marathon and 1 Yamaha G-2 plus I will be working on a Carryall 2 soon. For offroad I would rather have a Yamaha due to having the best suspension. Coilover shocks all the way around from the factory.

Im with slim67 on the Yamahas but I like them for the power they have with the stock engines. To me the gas Yamaha carts seem to run like a bat out of hell compared to gas club car and ezgo stock with governor tweaks only.

Good decision. We want pics.

Get a Jakes or an Allsports lift kit.

I got a 96 Yamaha G16. I will try to take some pics this evening. Hope to get a lift kit ordered in the next day or two, can't decide on the wheels I want.

as far as the lift I am going to go with the jakes but not sure which one to get the spindle, A-arm, or the long travel. When I put on the lift with the bigger tires is there something I will need to do to the motor or is it ok like it is.

thanks

You shouldnt need to do anything to the motor.

How did you make out with the lift. Let us know if you have any questions-Jake's

 

[clittle97]

I went with the Jakes long travel lift and some 23 in tires, I am going to try to start getting it on this week if I get some time.

Finally getting a chance to get started with the lift project. I got it pulled down to the frame and a fresh coat of paint on the frame today. Hopefully I can get it put back together this weekend and will put on some more pics.

Pictures gone due to photbuckets ransom...
