The motor isn't for a 89. When he orignally posted he said it was a 86-87. 89 they went to the later model rear ends. This motor will not work for 89 and newer carts sorry!

Say Andy, are you saying the motor in the picture will fit an 86-87? As far as I knew, the 86-87 model years came with a helical input gear on the armature shaft.

Question Re: Help choosing the right speed controller for 1986 or 1987

Here is a picture of the rear end it came out of.





The old truckster rear end also.

WTG Andy, ya' made me look....

As I recall, Dana axles were not available to EZGO in mid 86 thru 87. EZGO had to go elsewhere for axles so for +/- a year and a half non-Dana axles were installed in many vehicles including the X440, X444, and many others.

This picture is a motor off a late 86 X444. It's the stock 2hp GE. You can see the helical gear on the armature shaft that mated with a differential that looks uncannily similar to the picture of the axle the OP posted. CC may have used the same axle mfr. maybe from Dexter or AAM but that's just a SWAG since I have no clue who made the axle. Just not Dana....

It's just good for all to know that there were some variances in axles/differentials among the different model EZGO's during that time period. Best bet is to pull and inspect before buying a product for EZGO's from that era.

Question Re: Help choosing the right speed controller for 1986 or 1987

Yes there are so many differant rear ends out there you never know. That's why I wanted him to pull the motor to see what it looked like. That rear end he pictured looks like my old truckster rear end. Someone could have put a bunch of differant parts on it you never know.

I installed the 400a controller today, and did not notice much of a difference, next on the list is to send the motor to PQ, I will post pics of the motor when I get it pulled off to settle some of the questions. Any other suggestions to get some more torque out of the motor until I have it rebuilt? I already have 4ga cables. Im trying to avoid going to 48v unless its absolutely necessary.
