Time to choose a cart

Someone else has also done that and older posts have pics at different stages.

Pretty cool.

On the Recreational Equine Driving group - there are several folks currently experimenting with building different carts/wagons for their horses w/ some different configurations for moving the seat and springing the seat/axles/tires. All fascinating.

Don't forget the spring! Mine is well sprung - it's held up for years w/ me bouncing on it (LOL)

I don't know if I have a pic of the spring.

AH, here's one... You can kind of see it.

I'd bet a replacement light trailer spring and shackle would accomplish that. One thing I'd like to do should I ever build a jog cart would be to suspend the wheels and not just my bum... my thinking is that with no wheel suspension the shock goes right up the shafts to the horse. That's one of things that made sense to me about the Aerocrown. The poly spring blocks would not require any damping.
