the never ending thread continues ...
Rear shocks are blown.
After all teh work getting the golf cart rear end in and proven bulletproof it's time to rip it out and do something new
IRS and MORE power!!!
Got the quadrunner's 250 idling, needs some tuning work (valve, carb adjustment) but it does run and doesn't smoke
I have a pair of roketa gk29 trailing arms coming my way.
Should be a fairly straightforward IRS conversion.
Mount the arms and a jackshaft in line with the arm pivots, mount the quad's engine/frame directly to the chassis and either extend the crankshaft (i've already found a correct size/spline adapter) or drive a jackshaft off the engine and put it to it.
Once i determine the rear arm travel, it's getting something better than the polaris/fox shocks i presently have back there. i think my range of travel is going to nearly double.
