More Power for Monster EZGO...Suggestions Plz

cwayaustx · 08-27-2008, 04:24 PM

I just got my d&d 170-004-0002A, supposedly 80ft/lbs give or take. This will be ran by a 700amp 72 volt alltrax. Should get me pretty close to pulling the front wheels off the ground, running 27x10x12 swamplites. I have all the parts in now just need to put it all together. I also have a d380 which will be ran by the same controller, I will post performance updates on both setups.

That would be nice.

I will be looking for them. I am planing on up grading my orange cart to do wheelies. Cant wait!!!

If you can't get the front wheels off the ground with 72 volts and 700 amps using either motor there is something wrong.

I am not familiar with the D&D motor but 80 ft lbs is more than enough torque and I can pull the front wheels on 60V with 27" mudlites with my D-380. Be sure to write on the forum if you don't get some air under those front wheels so we can diagnose!

Ok after a little research I've decided to add the following:

Alltrax DCX 500A Controller
D & D ES-9B-50 Motor
(2) Trojan T105 Batteries (48VDC Total)
Alltrax SOL-48-400D Solenoid
Marine Grade 2/0 AWG Cables
PakTrakr 600EV Package w/ current probe
48VDC to 12VDC 30A Convertor

Should have all the parts by this weekend. I will post the results and some install pics after it's done.

Update: Added a brush guard and KC Daylighters

How much was the alltrax controller if you don't mind me asking?

outback · 09-05-2008, 05:13 PM

Alltrax DCX 500A Controllers are running ~$600, +shipping. You may be able to find one on ebay for less, but you don't get a warranty with those ones.

IH8GOLF · 09-05-2008, 05:19 PM

Brush guard & lights look good.

Light covers a cool.

Let use know if you get the front wheels off the ground.

Sorry for the misinformation, I said altrax and meant logisystems. With the 48 volt controller I do not pick the front wheels off the ground because it ramps slowly. I've yet to find something it can't climb though. I am going to use the 72 volt controller with the d380 on a long travel front end and 28inch tsl super swampers on 14 inch wheels. This is how she is looking now, more pictures to come.

cway,
You are reading my mind. I am currently running 700 logisystems-48v, D-380, Jakes 6" spindle/22"x10"x11.5" all terrains. My next step is to get a long travel, 72v controller, and 2-3 more 8v batts. Then regearing, front discbrakes, and of course bigger tires! Let me know how it all goes. Good Luck!

This is a stupid question, but do they make controllers that are made for more than 72 volts?
