Default R6 Golf Cart Build - Lifted, & Rear Wheel Drive!

It all started when I got a free messed up piece-of-crap yamaha golf cart. I picked it up and realized that I wouldn't be able to throw in the r6 engine in there... It's just not worth it. So I decided to build my own frame and weld everything together myself... and here's the best part... it's going to have a golf cart body on it and because it's my own frame, it will probably have to be a custom body that I will make on my own. Anyway, here are some pictures of the build so far. I will keep you all updated and posted. If I have any questions, I'll also post them here.

More pictures... the black circle was to drill the wheels from a honda 110mm x 4 bolt pattern to a yamaha bolt pattern 115mm x 4. It's the bottom of a bucket.

Im watching what your posting, waiting for more progress. The parts look like nice parts, but the real excitement will come when it starts to turn into a cart. If I can help, I will, but just ask when you want advice on something and keep the pictures and updates coming, and people will get excited the more they have to look at.

Brian :)

Thanks everybody!

Looking into swapping out the rear axle with this one:

And the rear hubs with these:

What do you guys think? Together it will give me an extra 7 inches in stance for the rear. I don't want to flip. The front is plenty wide.

Cool...the hubs are made with an offset like having a spacer but built in. I like.
