Zone Aftermarket Parts and Mods?

[78Southwind]

So who’s going to do what to their Zone once they get them? The first thing I want to do is put a trailer hitch on the Zone. For those in the know, how much will these Car(t)s be able to tow? I just want to be able to tow my GTX Sea Doo and maybe launch it. The Sea Doo is about 500lbs plus the weight of a small trailer.

It'll pull it. I've pulled mine many times.

Cool....I thought it would. It's not like I want to pull it 40 miles, I just want to pull it around the campground or to our timeshare launch ramp. This is the hitch and hitch extension I was looking at. I am not sure but I would think that the extension would need some sort of support at the rear seat platform.

that hitch mounts to the rear frame in frt of the rear deck. the extension shouldn't need any support.

I am also concerned about the motor getting wet from launching the Sea Doo. Can these motors be submerged into water? If not how about just getting a little wet? Maybe I could get a lift and bigger tires and it will not have to get submerged.

The motors are not rated waterproof. They are generally located above the rear axle, so as long as the water isn't over all 4 wheel nuts you should be fine.
The offroad/hunting guys regularly get these splashed and even some really wet and haven't heard too many complaints but, long term, I still think it's unwise to get these really wet.

we pull my 22 foot boat in and out of the shop everyday with a gas or electric cart.. then we are building a gas cart for a customer that pulls a 2000 pound dragster around the race track
