How to Align an EZGO TXT Golf Cart

Aligning an EZGO TXT starts with tire pressure, steering and suspension inspection, then toe adjustment. Do not use alignment to hide worn kingpins, tie-rod ends, wheel bearings, bushings, bent components, or loose steering hardware.

Work on a level surface

Park on flat ground with normal tire pressure and the steering centered. Make sure the cart is unloaded except for the normal equipment that stays on it.

Inspect before measuring

Lift the front safely and check for wheel-bearing play, loose tie-rod ends, worn bushings, bent steering arms, damaged wheels, or uneven tire wear. Repair looseness before adjusting toe.

Center the steering

Return the steering wheel and front wheels to the straight-ahead position. If the steering wheel is off-center because of previous adjustments, follow the service procedure for the exact TXT year rather than moving only one tie rod at random.

Measure toe consistently

Measure between matching points on the front tires at axle height, first at the front edges and then at the rear edges. The correct target varies by model year and service specification, so use the E-Z-GO manual for the final setting.

Adjust both sides carefully

Loosen the tie-rod lock nuts and make small adjustments. Keep the steering centered and avoid creating a large left/right length difference unless the model-specific procedure requires it.

Roll the cart and remeasure

After each adjustment, roll the cart forward and back to settle the tires, then measure again. Tighten all lock nuts to the correct service specification when alignment is complete.

Check tire wear afterward

If the cart still pulls or wears one tire rapidly, inspect camber-related components, bearings, suspension damage, or lift-kit geometry rather than repeatedly changing toe.

Read our uneven tire wear guide and golf cart tire pressure guide for related checks.

Bottom line

EZGO TXT alignment is mainly a toe-setting job, but accurate alignment starts with good steering and suspension parts. Use the service specification for the exact year and correct mechanical wear before making final adjustments.
