Do I have an HD F&R Switch?
I was driving my friends series cart and noticed his cart was much easier to shift in than mine. It got me thinking and I checked out his F&R switch. They are both series carts obviously and only a year apart. I looked under his seat and realized the F&R switch looked slightly different then mine also. It got me wondering if i already have an HD F&R switch. Can anybody chime in or give me any pointers to figure it out?

Re: Do I have an HD F&R Switch?
Doesn't look like you do, but you can't see buss bars to tell for sure in your pic. Look up HD buss bars and then find them on your switch. HD busses are a little thicker than the edge of a quarter. Standard buss bars are about half as thick. They are cheap and easy to install. Turning a standard fnr to an hd fnr is not difficult. There are several good videos on you tube that show how. I've put hd buss bars in every cart I have built. Never had any issues with over heating with them even on a 48v 500amp set up.

NO....the whole switch is at the top of the page.....its $169......the Switch Cam is just the bus bars and plate all assembled together, which is just part of the entire assembly. the switch cam is only $69

Re: Do I have an HD F&R Switch?
It will be a good oppertunity for you to clean & lube everything to make it operate like new. Dont fall for the temptation to leave the nut on the back of the switch "not fully tightened" to make it easier to turn, it needs the pressure on the contacts to ensure good connection.

Plus, I have not yet smelled on tiny piece of rubber burn even after climbing a 1/4 mile rough and tumble mountain (Black Bear hunting) four times in one day. To me.....that is performance!!! But...you may not want that kind of reliability, or perhaps you may not need that kind of performance. But, I do. MHO Dave |
