The Club Car DS Engine Mount is one of those parts that runs the line between necessity and comfort items. You need these things to be in place and in good condition to ensure that your engine does not shift and change the angle on something important. For example, if one of these mounts gets damaged and rots away, it could cause the whole engine to sit on a tile. This will pitch the angle of the clutch and cause the belt to wear out quickly. This is the first sign we tell customers to look for to call us.
Being able to spot the whole system on a tilt can be next to impossible, but the condition of your belt is something you can see every time you lift the seat. The last thing you want to see is smooth or glossy edges. This means that heat and friction have worn it down over time; this is not ideal for gripping on the surface of either pulley. That translates to no torque generated from the rear and no speed generated from the front. Even if the clutches are in perfect condition, this baby translates the power for the caddie.
This golf cart motor mount works for the 341cc engine. If you are unsure, they only made this set-up until the early ninties, and it's a side valve. That means the spark plug is on the side of the engine and not the top like an OHV would be. Call Buggies Unlimited and get one ordered.
unbolt all but one loosen last one pry up with a bar remove and replace start nuts on those three then do the last one tighten all four
Hi Jo, these are sold individually.
You can use any of the clone engines, I used a 16hp duramax, works well, but you do have to make some modification. You will need to make/ buy an adapter plate to mount the engine to. Clone engines need to be mounted level due to them not having a oil pump. They do sell complete kits, engine and all the mounting components.
There are 8 of these mounts , two on each motor mount bolt on the front of the mount plate and two on the back mounting bolts. The way they are set up is one of these on The bottom of plate with a steel bushing through the hole and one on the top of the mounting plate at each bolt. Hope this helps.
You will need 8 total , engine is mounted to a plate which is mounted to cart frame that's were the bushing r (plate to frame)
