Items On A GOLF CART That You’ll MOST Likely Need To REPLACE Golf Cart KEYS Under normal use keys don’t ‘break’ - but they are one of the most common items to lose. When purchasing golf cart keys look for fac- tory replacement / high-quality keys rather than trying to get a cheap copy made at a hardware store. Keyed ignitions (even on golf carts) are sensitive to the key size and cut. Buying keys from a trusted golf cart dealer will ensure you never get stuck not being able to use your golf cart again!. Golf Cart SHOCKS Is the rear end or front end of your cart sag- ging? Is your cart extra noisy when going over bumps or even when driving around gen- tly? Chances are your suspension parts are getting old. Golf cart shocks, struts, coil-over suspension, and leaf spring parts fade out over time due to use and age. Golf Carts utilize shock absorbers and/or leaf springs to soften ride quality over the bumps of rough terrain. Heavy duty golf cart shocks (or leaf springs) are recommended if you experience suspension sagging that is causing your wheels and tires to rub in your wheel wells. Sometimes, a golf cart lift kit alone is not enough to prevent tire rubbing if your suspension is old. Heavy Duty golf cart shocks can boost-up your front end 1-2 inch- es over OEM shocks. Refreshing the shocks on your old cart can help bring it right back to life, restoring the factory ride quality you’ve been missing out on; while heavy-duty shocks can beef up your cart’s ability to tackle hard terrain.
