2 Seater Rear Seat - GEM Forum

Oh man! I want this so bad! I have a gem where the frame doesn’t come thru the rear spat. Looks like your '05 has the same design. Can you (are you interested in) making one for me? I’m good with a wrench, but can’t weld. I’d order my own seat from a golf cart store (what ever model you used), but need the base frame that attaches to the gem for support.

If you want to learn more, please visit our website Shenzhen Bak Power Battery.

This is a “one off” to see if it could be done safely. Going to test it for awhile before moving on. Waiting on seat belts.

There is no penetration of the spat. However there are (2) I/2 inch holes thru the back panel for fasteners to the car frame. This puppy is solid. The entire package is only about 90 pounds.

Unfortunately, I live way up in Pittsburgh, but I work for a shipping company that would make this frame less expensive to ship. It looks like we have the same rear supports for a bag carrier or clip in stake bed that appears on yours. I just need some level frame to attach a rear seat to. I’d source the seat locally from a golf cart. Just need the frame built. If it bolted together and to the gem instead of being welded in a box shape, it would be even more economical. I can work a wrench, not a blow torch! I can’t tell from your photo how you did it. Our local community actually allows golf carts on the road and many of those are no where near as safe as a gem (at low speeds). I can take photos or compare frame structures to ensure we are dealing with the same chasis. I won’t be back to the lake until 6/10 though.

I ordered parts and will build up some more the middle of next month.

Early thru are different than up.

Both require that you send me your rear shocks for modification.

Include new bushings if required.

I know you can't have 4 for golf, I'm talking about running around town w others or visitors?

2 carts vs 1 four seat cart? We occasionally have visitors and need four seats to go out. We solved this with a pair of two-seaters rather than a single four-seater.

1. I'm not sure we could fit a four-seater in our garage.
2. When we don't have visitors we often head different directions and can each take a cart
3. When we do have visitors we sometimes head different directions and can each take a cart
4. It's sometimes nice for each of us to pair up with one half of the visiting couple for a conversation - two carts provide that opportunity

We probably paid more for our two carts than you would pay for a single four-seater but for us it was easily worth the money. __________________

Village of Hillsborough We have a 4 seater, with the 2 additional seats facing backwards, and these fold up for golfing. In the 6 or 7 years we have owned this cart, we have actually needed the additional seats maybe a dozen times, almost always at Christmas time and we were able to talk to our visitors with a raised voice. We have borrowed carts in the past and that worked well also.
There are variations on 4 seater carts, with some almost the same size as a 2 passenger cart, but is general these are longer, turns can be harder, parking can be more difficult, and some are hard to use for golfing. Our cart is used at least twice a week for golfing. __________________
Pennsylvania, for 60+ years, most recently, Allentown, now TV. If you are the average Villager, you will rarely use the 4-seat cart. You will spend another $2k to add the rear seat package with a covered roof and rain enclosure and beefed-up suspension that will ride like a lumber wagon. When I was in the cart business, I can't tell you how many times folks would after a couple of years sell it or trade it in for a 2-seater. When friends come in, rent a cart or borrow one from a neighbor. Just my opinion of course, but it comes with a load of experience. Twenty years a Villager and half of that in the cart business. Best wishes. We have two golf carts because we both golf and not always together. My first cart had a handy folding seat on the back (used I think twice) and was electric. With two carts we just didn’t need a four person golf cart. I never liked riding backwards and felt badly for putting any friend or guest on the cart to ride backwards. __________________

2 carts vs 1 four seat cart? I have an inexpensive 4 forward electric cart (evolution d5). So far it's treated us very well. Good range (70 miles) cheap, lots of options (unproven Chinese brand). We have used the back seat a lot more than we thought we would, we had a lot of family over the summer but we also have made great friends with a couple of our neighbors and when we go somewhere together we take our cart. I test drove a lot of them before we bought, this one has all the seats between the wheels so it's well behaved when you're fully loaded. It's also only 6" or a foot longer than the Yamaha with 2 forward and 2 rearward.

I'll be the first person to say buying a Yamaha is a safe bet, can't go wrong. If you want to dip your toe in the ev world for a lot less money this might be a consideration. You're welcome to borrow it for a few days if you'd like to test drive it. __________________
