Is the left tie rod thread a mirror image or is it the same as the RHS thread?
In the video, a forward turn on the RHS turns the toe inwards. Does this hold for the LHS wheel as well or do we need to do a backward turn to turn the LHS toe inwards? Sorry if this question seems stupid.
Why is there an extra hole next the tie rod? I noticed mine is in that one on the end. Does it make a difference? Did you have to adjust the other tie rod as well? I heard you are supposed to do the same thing to the otherside. Great video again.
Hi Kevin I work on Yamaha g29 now had g22 before at a golf course . FYI I found that if you break loose the tie rod bolt 1st it makes it easier for the knuckle plate bolts if you don't have a impact wrench ,Sometimes when they are real bent they are hard to get off they seem to get pinch in there . Mike P.S. always watch your stuff I work on other golf carts for the public and get all my tips from you
Why would you spend all that time heating, banging, and painting that bracket so it's sorta fixed when you could just replace it with two bolts that are already off? I mean you left it sitting for days so time wasn't an issue. The no measuring eyeball method of alignment, breaking the factory bolt and replacing with non-standard ungraded bolt, overtightening the kingpin. Maybe for your own cart you can make choices like that but not for paying customers. This is an embarrassing hack job.
The customer is happy with the work and its what they wanted. They were dumping the cart at the end of the year so they "just wanted it working". You were here for that conversation, though.
Thanks for showing the bent part. Very helpful knowing what to look for when inspecting for damage.
Great video Kevin. Thank you for posting.
Thanks for filming this. Good reference points.
Thanks much for posting this - it helped me fix my issue.
Any suggestions on bending one without a vice?
Replace it with a new one or buy a vice or press.
Hi Kevin,
I have a 2004 EZGO TXT gas. With a Jakes Lift kit(5”) I believe. How do you adjust the front end?
Thanks
I learned something today thanks
You're welcome!
Thankyou ... excellent video and very well explained.....

I believe the extra hole is used at the factory for steering them down the assembly line. I could be wrong.
@@Kevinsgolfcarts I noticed it hits the A arm in that position. I think I going to move it to the inner.
Good demo!

not a good idea trying to repair/re-bend the plate. it only weakens it further should another accident occurs. Just replace not repair
