    Finished up the inverter bulkhead.

    I wasn't going to install it originally, however, I already have it and it's purpose is for the neighborhood parades. But for the rear passengers that might need to charge their phone, it's worth it.

    I left space to put the novelty plate once the registration is completed.

    Also, found this chart online. Definitely happy that we went electric for the golf cart ;)

    Been slow due to some business this week.

    Swapped out the husky ratchet strap with a green one to match the Eco battery and the controller:

    Next week, I'm reaching out to my neighbor about the LSV registration service he used/recommended and will start gathering all the paperwork from the accessories installed related to making the cart street legal.

    I reached out to swisstrax for a quote for the 2 car bay. I should be receiving more information from them today or early next week.

    Lastly, we figured out a new plan for the shed and where that will be placed. I'm excited to get the lawnmower and yard equipment out of the garage.

    Brought out the dry erase board in the garage to keep track of everything that needs to get done.

    They came this week to take the cart and process LSV registration.

    IMG_2762.jpg

    Went with radials for the cart. Not much to choose from. LSV requirements dictates DOT required.

    Learned that 27x8.5r14 LT's tires will fit. So future plans secured...

    IMG_2771.jpg

    Got them swapped over today at home. Pain in the motherfucking ass.

    4-6 weeks for LSV to be completed.
