2008 txt 36v TXT 6" lift
Hi all,
New to the forum here and sorry if this has been gone over before. I tried searching and didn't find anything. I just purchased a 2008 TXT 36V cart. So far I have ordered a light kit to make it street legal, converter, rear seat, and heavy duty leafs. I plan on lifting this cart. This cart will mostly be on pavement with little hills. This is for my family to go to the neighborhood pool and go to neighbors houses. I have a set of 25x10x12 Bearclaws on 4x4 rims that will mount on this cart. I would love to be able to use these tires/rims so I don't have to purchase new ones. The rims have a 5/2 spacing to them. If I ordered a 5" drop axle or 6" spindle lift, would these fit under the cart? Also will the cart with a stock motor be able to turn this size tire under the stated the conditions? Thank you Chris |

Re: 2008 txt 36v TXT 6" lift
The experts can tell you exactly what you need, but a 36v cart with stock controller and motor is not going to work very well, or last very long on that setup. If those tires are low pressure, it’s going to be even worse.

Water....
You are going to be VERY disappointed with the power (lack of) and performance of a stock 36v with 25" s !! With the added weight of the rear seat, lift kit and the tires, you will have almost no torque (acceleration) and will be overloading (for its short life) the controller. Those tires are more for off road. I would suggest (from experience) a "read through" of builds of your type of cart to see what people have done, and had to re-do to get where there are now..... You didn't mention if it was a series or sepex system, that also make a big difference is planning... go here... http://www.buggiesgonewild.com/elect...en-system.html Another item from experience, many ATV rims that LOOK 4x4 bolt pattern are actually a METRIC 4x1XXmm and will wobble like crazy on a true 4x4" (golf cart)..... I am not trying to be the downer here, just trying to be of info... |

I might try to use the rims and sell the tires and get some smaller ones. I really don't want to install a new controller or motor after looking at prices on those. In all this cart will just be used to cruise my neighborhood and figured I should do it in style. But it's not worth basically stripping the whole cart out and starting over. The cart is a Sepex style with PDS If I can get a picture to attach from my phone, I'll post a pick of the tires and rims in question. |
