Golf Cart back seat project

[fenters]

Hey guys, I'm not a advid poster on here, I mostly just use the search button alot. I have started on a back seat for our golf cart. I couldnt justify spending the money the vendors want for thier back seat's when I can try to use these hands of mine. First Off, I'm still a newb at this even though I have owned this machine for 8years and doing projects off and on. The past year I have used it alot around the garage building projects and practicing. Here are some shots of it so far.

Looks like you're off to a great start.

Are you going to do the upholstery work, too?

Looks good. If they drive like some I've seen, some side handles might be a good idea on semi-rough terain. As you face backwards you can't see the bumps coming until its too late.

Look like a very good job to me, I am doing some modifacations to my old Yamaha G1 gas cart myself and am going to be building some seats for it. Keep up the good work and have a good one.

Looks good. The side rails are definitely a good idea

Thanks guys, I have planned on some side handles for the seat also. My local supplier has been out of 1" box 16ga for about 2 weeks now. I have a HF compact bender to bend the box with. I know it will crease the metal but on factory built seats they are creased also.

I built the foot rest this past weekend to bolt to the cart, I havent uploaded the pics right yet or finished with covering the foot rest with Dp or find a metal dp for it to weld to it. I will try and post some more pics in the following days.

Hey Calvinjeep89, Here is a good forum for golfcarts www.buggiesgonewild.com I'm "carolinasled" over there.

Here is some shots of the foot rest frame and frame outer supports. Still just taking my time.

I havent worked on it much but here and there. Here is some new shots.

Here is the final shots, I've forgot to post the rest of the pics but here they are.

While I was finishing the back seat I ran across a deal on some 25" ITP's on SS wheels, So I decided to save some money and make aswell.
Re-did the steering to a drag link setup which gave me easier turning.

Sorry for the overly large images.

By the looks of those tires this might be the first off road golf machine

It's really neat how you bent the angle iron to form the seat frame. It adds a finished look. Definitely not shadetree stuff.

So, where's the beer cooler carrier?
