New motor for 1990 36v?
I have a 1990 ds 36v that does 20 on a full charge. I want more speed.(specs below) The motor is upgraded, but old. It said 6.1hp. Is it worth getting a faster motor? Or do I need to upgrade to 48v batteries first? I can’t do them both at the same time.
Also, are motors fairly plug and play, or will I likely run into issues with it being an old cart? Like seized bolts and things. Thanks guys! |

It appears you are pretty well set up to go 48 volt with the Alltrax. This should give you a great improvement in speed. Going to lithium would add to that also due to less weight. Let's see if some series cart experts can help you more. |

Re: New motor for 1990 36v?
I have a stock F&R switch so I had to program it down so get a "smooth" reverse. Currently looking into an HD one with a microswitch for half-speed reverse.
Going Lithium is ideal, but a huge investment especially now with prices. Maybe that's more worth the money over a new motor. Also an easier transition. Thanks for the input. |
