Default 1991 marathon rear shocks

If I plan on putting a rear seat on a 91 marathon electric do I need to put better shocks in it? If so can I just get them at the auto parts store or what do I need? Also will the shocks need to change if I decide to add a lift kit in the future?

Default Re: 1991 marathon rear shocks

The shocks realy just control/dampen the bounce of the cart they do not add any carrying capacity. You might want to consider HD leaf springs.

Automotive shocks were designed to control several thousand pounds and would not be the best alternative IMO. You might be able to find some ATV coil overs that would work but would proabably require some modification.

If you add a lift kit later most include moving the shock mount location accordingly so you can use the factory shocks.
