The mock-up looks okay. I'd bypass the reed switch in the charge receptacle. B+ from reed switch bypass goes to "I" on the keyswitch and B+ out from keyswitch on "B" to controller and pedal switch. That will have the controller powered up whenever the key is ON, which I think is a good idea. |

Re: 1998 EZGO shuttle
Thank you Johnnie! You kept me from melting this thing! That's why I asked.
Taking out the rivet gun to finish this thing. |

Re: 1998 EZGO shuttle
Took the wife out for the first lap around the neighborhood in the newly put back together ride... found out that my ambition to fit 205/65/10 wheels is just enough to rub like hell on most bumps, especially with 6 humans and 1 dog out for a cruise.
Guess I'm seeking a small lift, which may be cheaper than 4 new tires... other than that it's great to not have this thing in pieces from where i started. Looking forward to some black seats in the near future. |

Re: 1998 EZGO shuttle
Looking at the
EZGO 4" INCH LIFT KIT - DROP AXLE Part Number 608972 Do any of you know if this kit will fit this shuttle. I spoke to a retailer regarding this product and the person said that there isn't a kit for the shuttle, however a shuttle seems to just be a long txt. Any help is appreciated. |

Re: 1998 EZGO shuttle
That is the correct kit for the old style steering. Do you have cable brakes or hydraulic?

Further research indicates that the front may be doable with the kit but i may need to do an old fashioned shackle lift on the rear? But would that mess up all the cables? |

Re: 1998 EZGO shuttle
Problem you would have is the rear lift blocks used on a txt won’t clear the hydraulic lines on the brakes. Longer shackles would help some on the back and your leaf springs are shot. Replace those with some new hd ones and that will definitely help.

Wonder if anyone has a good shackle product that is in use? Automotive type? Thinking 2-3" to accompany that 4" ezgo lift to level the cart with new hd springs... |

Re: 1998 EZGO shuttle
I decided to abort the whole lift idea. After examining the height the cart would become to achieve clearance of the brake linkage, we'd be looking at a solid 6" . We're not willing to raise that center of gravity on this heavy cart to complete that install.
Decided to cut my losses on the tires (and maybe sell them locally) and purchase a set of low profile 205/50/10. The height of that tire/wheel is less than a new stock 18.5/8/8. |
