CC DS Front End Damage
I am thinking of buying an 03 DS that has damage to the passenger side of the front end. I have read threads that you can either try to straighten the frame or install a lift kit on it. Can someone give me the best advice for this cart? Is is best I find an old frame to swap parts on or would a lift kit correct most of this damage?

Re: CC DS Front End Damage
Depends on the price. Are you 100% certain there is frame damage and/or front end damage. The front cowl is easy to swap but I dont think it owuld make much sense to swap that cart onto a new frame I would just buy a different cart. A lift kit may not fix everything depending on where the damage is.

Re: CC DS Front End Damage
Looks like there’s at minimum steering and frame damage. Would be nice to see some pictures from underneath.

Re: CC DS Front End Damage
Did the owner say the frame is bent?
Can’t tell from any of those pics. At the very least it probably needs a control arm and leaf spring. And depending how hard it hit the wall/fence post it might need tie rod ends on the passenger side. |

Yes, the owner told me the frame was bent. I think I will keep looking for another cart at this time.

Depends on the price, a wreck cart not running is worth its weight at the scrap yard. However the DS is the queen of the prom. Consider buying as a parts cart & looking for another to fix up.
