Club Car President 2015 rear bumper replacement

More Club Car repairs that could have been avoided before leaving the barn. 

90% of issues I repair start at the cart barn or poor/or no battery maintanance.

Batteries should last 3-6 years . 

8-9 seasons in and replaced more batterries well pretty much all by now twice some 3 times and some do to lack of enthusaism from Cart barn staff .

lack of maintaining batteries cost $$$$$$ not to mention the hit the cart infront of you in the cart barn to stop!!

8-9 years in had provided info many times to a point that nothing has changed.

I give up . 

Some video and pictures for removeing rear bumper below.




Yep might as well clean these up first this ones not to bad.


check torque on nuts 


clean battery tops 


seal terminals 



I removed all these before starting. 2 on side bumber and rear motor access


remove the old style canopy


New style just 2 bolts. 



remove ant accessories 



pick of seat backrest alighnment pins 






These 2 bolts are for bag rack and holds down new style bag covers 








used the tripods to hold back of canopy up 





the long screws hold the canopy arms 




pull remaining part straight off



if you snap one of theses alignment pins off it's ok just make sure the front hole is lined up 



Remove these brackets that hold eevrything together



after new bumper is installed you will need to redrill holes 


to get the body skirt of the switch has to be removed along with 4 bots in seat frame area 


pic of wiring orientation 





once the skins off you can remove remaining bolts in picks below to get old bumper off. 




These ones are on the outside of rear shackle area 


when installing new part ,tip forward and you might have to pull out on sides to get it to slide inside front section then care full tip it back . 






give it a good cleaning so new part goes on easier 


Thought of blogging on it after the fact . Look it over and you'll figure it out.

after the fifth one I'm done to a half hour from start to finish .
