Golf Carts Modified 2019 Golf Cart Build-Off
AUSTIN FEHLER
Builder: Austin Fehler
Location: Rosemount, MN
The winning cart of the 2019 Golf Carts Modi-
fied, modified class build off is built around a
1998 E-Z-GO TXT. Featuring a stock chassis with
a custom lift.
This cart is outfitted with a homemade drop
axle, rear leaf springs, and traction bars so the
golf cart could take some abuse off-road.
To get more power I added a Vegas Carts
engine cradle so that I could hold my 670cc
V-Twin down and tight. I also added a Jake’s
Baja cage kit to keep passengers and myself
safe while we are getting down and dirty.
One of the major key elements to my build was
my custom fabrication work. Some of things
that I made on this build included;
Suspension
Front and rear bumper/hitch
Alternator mounts
And the wheels.... Yes, the wheels are designed
by me and they were purposely designed to
give the cart the extreme off-road look I was
going for.
