Now that my cart is so fast...
I want better stopping action.
I know that 28 MPH is not all that fast, but stopping a limo cart at that speed is no small task either. With that being said, just how hard is a disc brake conversion? I have seen a few different designs and don't know where to start. wwwamericanliftkitscom/rear-disc-brakes These look simple enough and they are made local to me but I just don't know what I need. |

Re: Now that my cart is so fast...
I would go with ScottyB's kit.
http://www.cartsunlimited.net/Hi_Per...ce_Brakes.html You can also add Jakes front disk brake conversion kit but youll have to go with their lift spindle kit also. |

Re: Now that my cart is so fast...
Our rear disc brake kit from Ausco is $50 less than what you listed.
Another option would be wet disc brakes from my friend Rick at wheelsca (google it) A 4 wheel set would offer the MAX stopping power for this HEAVY load. |

The Ausco cable operated disc brake kit is more installer friendly. The wet system combined with the very small lines was too much challenge for the average cart enthusiast. Plus the Ausco kit costs about half as much. |

I hope these will do the trick. I don't really want to do the front, especially since I just installed a new lift and would have to change out. If not, I may look at re-programing the controller to slow down the cart if that can even be done... Thanks for the help everyone |
