Lee, most domestic shock manufacturers are no longer made here or of quality. Koni and KYB are the exceptions. Fortunately golf cart usage is not normally heavy duty usage, so I would look to quality ATV manufacturers brands that fit. I use Rhino shocks on mine......

are the rhino shocks soft enough? I have shocks off a grizzley on mine and they don't give at all! I've been shopping on ebay but no one wants to ship to canada. A local guy has some new 14" shocks for a chinese dunebuggy he would probably let me try first. $60 pr. I know the quality isn't there,but I thought for a cart they might live
thanks for replying

My cart buddy in crime found some for 25/pair. They are 15" he took his lift off the rear of G9 a put them on. Says it is not quite high enough for 22s and pretty soft. But they are set on soft he needs a spanner to adjust them up. He had family issues this week not been able to play with it more. Going to adjust that, if they work I'm buying 4 or 6 of them for my cart. Should be fun putting 15" shocks on the front lol. Chrome and yellow springs guy has a pallet of them but he is out of town yet, some guy that sells gokart parts. Said they were for ATVs. I'm wondering about fitting the originals too and set them up somehow to be overloads....that would be nice for stuff in the box yet softer on the trail, not sure its possible though.

I took a pic, but can't get the guy yet he is out of town. Guy w/cart still having family things, if we get a nice weekend I will get over there and drive it around/etc. He said it is larger bolt hole, it needs a bushing or drill out the cart brackets.

Too long for me.I'd sure be interested in some 14" ones though.
Sho, if it were me I'd bush them down,use 3/8 pipe or something.Once you drill out the brackets you can't go back to the reg sizes without welding washers over the holes.
