on most golfcarts you can flip the motor so that reverse and forward are swapped because reverse usually runs faster in golf carts as far as lifts i think some companies make kits...

jacked up golf carts and mules are the ticket for upland bird hunting in texas and the rest of the flat states. use less gass than a "quail outfitted" truck or jeep with the high seat/platform. my friend just bought one for his ranch to move his father around in. plus the old willy's is toast. he really likes it.

if the front end is anything like the club car we have, all you really need to do is flip the spindles.
ok let me try to explain what i mean.
As it was stock, the lower A arm was the leaf spring, the upper arm was a regular a arm. What I was able to do was take the spindle apart, switching the mounts so that the leaf spring is now acting as the upper a arm. The old upper is now the lower with a custom mount for it. These prob raised it a good 6 inches. The back we just did a spring over.
As far as making it faster, only go down hills.

The only prob I see with that is that there is no way that would fit inbetween the post on the bike paths around here. Then how are we supposed to get to the bar?? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

I worked at a golf course in '92, so if yours is the same as that vintage, it works like this-the governor has two arms (iirc) which are easily accessable above the motor with a screw to adjust. Take a cable tie and zip that sucker back-I don't remember exactly where but it'll be obvious when you see it. It'll run about 20mph like that, and they have a rev limiter built into the electronic ignition so you absoulutely can't blow them up-we tried.
