Best DIY Club Car alignment video I've seen. Thank you!

Man, great videos. I'm a mechanic up on Canada and your tip about the camber being pulled negative with weight in the cart is *spot on*. About to start a custom build on my own Precedent, thanks for making these great videos.

Glad it helped! I Promise you I’ve picked up a lot of tips from others posting videos so just trying to pay it forward!

Excellent and very helpful. I’ll be applying these steps as soon as I’ve completed my lift install.

Thanks for posting. I've been wearing out tires for years. I just keep rotating them. When I searched this topic before, a club car training video came up making it seem like you can only move it from side to side. After watching your video, I feel like I should have figured it out as I do all the work on my cars. 🙄 Anyway, thanks again. The new tires that I have being delivered today will appreciate the adjustment. 😅😂

Thank you great video!!!

Great video.

Great video. You did all of the adjustments on the right tire. Why did you not have to adjust the left tire as well?

Somewhere around 8:40, you can see that one side was already within specs, you only adjust the side that is out of specs. This one just happened to only need one side adjusted, since this cart was only one year old since I built it, they obviously did not knock it out too far. If you’re adding a lift for the first time there’s gonna be a lot more trial and error

Needed this video, thanks! What locktite do you recommend?

In my opinion Loctite is Loctite! You’re not building an airplane, this is a golf cart it’ll be fine 😊👍

Yikes!...that's a hard way to do it. Glad that works for you

Wow, I’m always eager to learn, do you see any easier way on some of my steps? That advice could help us all out!

Excellent instruction!! All your missing is the torque specs. Can we get those please

@Kartznfartz

Those I don’t have, but rule of thumb is the larger the bolt the more torque you can put on it, I guess all the years in the automotive field I just have a good feel for it. But you’ll know what will hold these jam nuts and also the spindle bolts in place. Thank you for the compliment also!

How do you adjust the camber on a regular club cart precedent please? Any videos on how to do that?

You cannot adjust camber on each wheel individually on a factory club car. You can loosen the lower center spring mount and adjust the camber on each of the front wheels together as the spring can side left or right, finding the most centered/even position. If centered and your camber is heavy negative, you have some bad bushings. Either the spring, a-arms, or king pin bushings need replaced. Possibly all of them.

This! Well explained 👍

I followed your instructions and I got the front toed in at 1/4 inch. I tightened the nuts as directed. I then took it out for a ride and both tires reverted back to being towed out considerably. What happened?

@mygt8a4re

I know this is 5 months late from your question, but it sounds like your front bushings are shot.

Is there a method to make sure the tires are point pretty straight before you do the toe? I know the old string trick but on my club car the rear end is wider than the front, Do you just eyeball it?

What torque specs are you using for these different nuts and bolts?

I'm like you and want to be spot on. This is a situation where I'm fine with "just make them tight". I have a motorhome and had to get something done at a Freightliner in Springfield, Missouri. They had a mobile mechanic come to do the job. When I asked where his torque wrench was, he said, "I don't use one. Tight is tight". He's not the only mechanic I've heard that from. 🙄

Do you carry plumquick motors for the ds square body??

I don’t, I’m sorry. If I could buy a good core, I’d definitely would drop one off to keep on the shelf!

How to adjust the camber on a 1998 club car. I have a positive camber right now but not sure how to adjust it out. Both wheels have the same gap on the bottom of the tire

Did you happen to put a lift block on your cart for wheel clearance? If so, this causes that issue. They make adjustable front king pins that can correct the factory camber setting.
