Has anyone ever had to relocate gas and brake pedals? I just can't get it in my head how I want them to look and work. The steering rack is all up in my way. So i may flip them back down to floor,....

Would a pic of the Marketeer pedals help. It appears I'll be able to use them in stock form for my build. Although, I am a noob and have never done this before I like this build; gives me ideas for mine. Do you know where your temp sender is located?

I got the gas pedal figured out. I used the stock ezgo pedal and moved it over and did a little mod on it. Works great. The brakes I'm having to engineer it to where it both actuates the master cylinder for the front disc brakes an also works the rear atv brakes.

Hey nice build you have going here, do you by any chance have any more pics of the way you did that shifter im building a crazy lifted cart with a Honda 450es foreman motor and have been trying to figure out a clean shifter... My dad said paddle shift on the steering wheel which would be cool but I want a floor shift.. check out my thread http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/lifte...tor-29-5s.html

350es shifter setup
check out the vid,...............I used two heavy duty starter push-button switches, two springs, it works great. I tried to use the orginal switches but that didn't pan out

Yeah I already watched the video its just a little dark and hard to see whats going on there I have the concept though how long have u had it like that and how has it held up. Are you pleased with the reliability of it?

[J.Adams]

Reason I asked is my original switches are going bad they work when they want to and im looking to build a awesome reliable shifter for my cart and don't want to do it twice... 1 and done that's my motto

ok time for a laugh,....the actual lever is a petal arm from a mountain bike I had, a shoulder bolt, a piece of angle iron, the two switches from auto-zone and the springs. Yes it works great. Only thing I should have put some bump stops on it. My oldest son over extended it this past weekend and broke a spring. All in all it's got a +10 cool factor. I thought of putting switches in the steering wheel, but kind a wanted a hotrod look.

I'll take some pictures. here is my drawing design

hahaa Nice a mountain bike crank arm whatever works right... well the design aspect looks well built a few close ups would be awesome.. and yeah I could see how bump stops would be a big help from over extending the shifter and possibly damaging a button.. and leaving you stranded in 1st for a looonnggg ride home lol

One other thing. Don't weld on the thing while battery is hooked up. I fried my angle sensor.

[J.Adams]

no big deal mines already fried it wont shift and says its in neutral and isn't and wont start I have to use a wrench and manually click it down to neutral then it fires right up... lol its on my to-do list before the cart is fully operational
