I’ve learned that the reason for your clearance issue is due to the front leaf springs. On those old txt’s the springs become weak. All you have to do is install new ones. Learned the hard way

[@MidwestMotor]

This is so damn cool! Now I have some confidence I can buy a cheap cart and mod it like this. Awesome, thanks for making this video!

[@user-yo7pp9zx3y]

That transformed into a beautiful machine, great job

[@brianscarberry787]

Outstanding build! But even better video! Thank you. Cant wait to watch more!!!!!

[@Ariztid]

Yup! Totally gonna do this.

[@Miner49er1]

I stumbled upon your channel when I was putting a car repair kit together, but I really enjoyed this video. You did a great job not only on the cart, but the video also. Thanks for sharing!

[@projectkarr]

Thanks, I really appreciate it!

[@freedomperformance1]

Great video, thanks for taking the time to document the build. How large of a tire do you think could have gone with the 3” spindles installed?

[@richardwest4722]

Beautiful great job!

[@stevereese6488]

That’s awesome, I’m gonna do that to my 2010 48v ezgo

[@MarineX]

19:05 Super interesting project. I totally want to do something like this for my hunting property. Cute kid btw

[@projectkarr]

That’s awesome you have a hunting property. The possibilities are endless. And thank you!

[@7ramdam]

That’s carts amazing.. the only thing that would’ve took it one step up is a solar roof!! Never need to recharge… e we parking on my currently ❤❤. But yours is a beauty. Love the back seat / utility box… I want 😊

[@ganoncollins1]

Nice job, looks good. I know you didnt want to lift it, but come on, wouldnt have looked nearly as good! Glad to see the little one in there wrenching with you, love it!

[@projectkarr]

Haha I have to agree, I do like the look of a slight lift. Also the extra ground clearance makes it easier to load into my truck. Haha yes she’s always finding something to wrench on

[@kenpatmon2152]

Hey man…You did a fantastic job on this cart and your video was great! I’ve got a cart just like it and because of THIS VIDEO, I’m going to go ahead and follow your lead and rebuild mine as well. I sure would like a list of things from you if that’s possible.

[@MsPAPA1968]

Hi i like that what would the cost of this kind of upgrade

[@REXPERT7MOTORSPORTINCMiami]

Love it

[@cristohidalgo]

It came out really nice. I wonder if those body kit fits in 1997 yamaha G16?

[@richardbates2367]

I have a set of kicker cs465.25 that I plan to put in my 2000 dodge ram Laramie slt for door speakers and a set of cerwin vega hed 6 1/2 inch speakers for the rear doors.. and I might have a better idea for a amplifier that would have more low end bass but it doesn't have the control panel and that is the dual electronics xpr series amplifiers

[@gregoryhathaway8862]

Most likely I'm too late but the transom looked tight to the center pontoon....being a plastic do you need some sort of padding between the to to avoid friction cutting the pontoon? BTW nice project....also next time you glue your flooring try "flapping" the vinyl as is laying face to face creating a cushion of air allowing you to "push" the vinyl into place.... sounds crazy but it works... I've handled very large cuts doing this.

[@kaptkrunchfpv]

Sweet! Honestly with that powertrain you could have just washed it off a little and had a sic ride!

[@TheZambie1]

Nice job.

[@alexandermeans364]

Do you have a video for how you converted forward/reverse shifter to electronic?

[@coryherman7643]

Are those the original bars for your new canopy? And which canopy did you go with?

[@michaelcarpenter193]

The seats are the MadJax Executive Seats - Tuxedo

[@karrkn8900]

I don't see a link to the seats you used. I don't think the seat belt is standard on the EZGO, did the ones on yours come with the seat or with the body kit? Love the look, I have 5 older carts in our fleet and with the cost of new carts going up it looks like this would be a great option to revitalize these old ones.

[@arcraider937]

Nice presentation 👏 We paid $300. For our ezgo. Only have a $2000. budget . Good thing we have a welder 😅 .

[@sherrycui6416]

you are amazing！！！！👍

[@user-gw7sh6mn5h]

Good job

[@charlesab]

Freaking awesome looking

[@michaelsullivan6998]

awesome

[@Jomhockman101]

Great looking cart. What was the total spend on the upgrades?

[@draywalker7791]

So the lights are wired through the reducer?

[@aryanpatel-vo3up]

could you make a price breakdown video?

[@user-li4gq4hi9y]

Nice

[@williamhartman9]

This is amazing but wouldn’t it be less expensive to buy a new one . I’m genuinely interested to know. I have an old 91 ezgo that I am considering sending t o an expert like you.

[@therealjamesmccrary]

Looks great…except the controls. Would’ve loved to see it more integrated and blend with the dash more.

[@Wilsonwillfixit]

More please

[@finnleygordon577]

How fast does the controller make it go

[@alanplambeck6608]

Where do you get all your parts at?

[@iamjacobwulff]

What seat covers are those?

[@rohanboswell5408]

How to make forklift motor have supper speed and torque

[@robertleonardo3570]

Great job. Great video. Where are you located? Im from central cali. interested in building another cart?

[@projectkarr]

Thanks a lot. I’m in the Visalia area. A friend of mine owns a business in Tulare (Battery Pro) where they build tons of carts and would probably be a better option since they know way more than me about all the different carts. And they can get a better price on parts.

[@troymilleraz]

👍

[@jordanmaus2621]

@Project Karr - Did you use 2014+ rocker panels with the Storm body kit? Only ones I've found on the internet for pre 2014 EZGOs are the diamondplate ones or direct replacements that have the chrome inlay piece like you originally had.

[@projectkarr]

Hmm I’m honestly not sure, but I have the same rockers on my 1999 and 2018 carts. I believe they are the 2014+ gtw brand.

[@adoidont]

You should've put a grand total on what you spent to upgrade the cart. Sticker shock!

[@cristianparra9621]

Awesome job!! what color is it?

[@jamesballiet5862]

Really, teal

[@QTT0]

How much was the kit

[@kennethwells1159]

What was that Teflon coating you used? Can you add a link?

[@projectkarr]

Are you referring to the ceramic coating I put on the wheels? If so, I used Carpro DLux. It’s a little pricy but makes cleaning wheels so easy and it lasts for years. Here’s a link: amzn.to/3WfVGOL

[@Vargas-ts5if]

Total spend?

[@thegunut2]

Did u use 1” front strut for the roof support? Says it’s for 2014 and up but I want to try to use it on a 2000 Ezgo txt… trying to confirm if it’s possible thanks

[@projectkarr]

I used the 3/4” front roof support but you shouldn’t have an issue using the 1” support as long as you also change the windshield clamps to 1”

[@thegunut2]

Thanks!

[@davmel1006]

Hey on you build you did 11 months ago what did you do with the old body parts?

[@davmel1006]

I'm wondering if the bumper would fit my 2019 ezgo. My bumper is busted a bit.

[@projectkarr]

I actually just picked up a 2018 txt to do another build on. I will check and see how the bumper looks on it

[@jbigtruss5301]

Where do I get the stuff for rebuild?

[@lorirodriquez6100]

My brother is giving me an old golf cart. I know nothing about them other than he said it will need new batteries. Can i send you a few pictures and see if you can offer any information to upgrade it a little?

[@projectkarr]

That’s awesome and absolutely!

[@lorirodriquez6100]

Where should i send the pictures?

[@projectkarr]

@@lorirodriquez6100 [e-mail] or dm my Instagram Project Karr

[@lorirodriquez6100]

@@projectkarr I sent you an email :) thanks again

[@Trillville43]

The only issue is its not using lithium batteries.

[@projectkarr]

Haha yes this cart now has a lithium pack.

[@rockynymia]

So it’s a 48V converted

[@projectkarr]

Yes, was originally 36v, then converted to 48v. Now running 48v lithium

[@davidallison976]

Hate you went to the spindle lift! Don’t care for how they ride at all, otherwise nice build.

[@jacksongeis3549]

How much money was this build?

[@robertdavis9020]

Probably around 7-8k minimum not including the cart

[@Toesucker-1succ]

Wow one of the best videos I have ever seen. I want to do that to mine.

[@Eye-it-azz]

@@robertdavis9020 More like $700 It didn’t cost more than $2,500 to build the whole thing. $7k ? What made you say that number ?

[@robertdavis9020]

@@Eye-it-azz body kit is $1,800, 6 eight volt batteries are going to be around $200 each so we’re already at 3k then the motor and controller swap is a few thousand, the rear seat kit is $500-700, think you can start to get the idea how quick it adds up, if you get dealer pricing then good on you but at retail it’s going to cost you

[@mikebell7124]

Can you provide a parts list ?

[@Pops1970]

Didn't even look at the battery tray. Wtf

[@GreatNo01]

Maybe you should have just bought a new cart?

[@projectkarr]

Buying a cart that is plated and does 35mph would have cost substantially more than I have into this one.

[@user-nf1cl7zj4x]

@@projectkarr how much did it cost?

[@jamesballiet5862]

Maybe if he bought a new one, we would not know how to DIY, and just pass monies away on labor, DIY

[@kornfed383]

How hard was it to license? I’m in CA also and you don’t see many with plates.
