Re: PDS lost power after climbing ditch bank
With a pds you should always be cognizant of the fact that the motors do produce more heat when driven at slower speeds and never put them in a stall situation. That is a situation where you are asking it to go and it can not either due to lack of power or increased load or too steep of an incline etc.
As long as you are aware of these situations you should be okay with the PDS and mild off roading with the 808 pkg and 8 pc cable set. |

Re: PDS lost power after climbing ditch bank
Yes the bandit motor will perform well on 400 amps.

Re: PDS lost power after climbing ditch bank
Jrantz, where in Georgia?
I'm in Moultrie and I have a '05 lifted PDS with the 400 amp Alltrax. I've fried one, but I'm happy with the performance over stock. |

Re: PDS lost power after climbing ditch bank
I did, but I went over kill on it and did 2/0. All you need is 6 gauge. I 'd did the heavy ones cause I wanted the beefy look when you opened the hood
 and I'm in industrial sales, I got the stuff really cheap.I'll be at Fort Stewart in the am! |

Re: PDS lost power after climbing ditch bank
NO. 6 gauge is factory on a PDS bro. Do AT LEAST 4 gauge.

Re: PDS lost power after climbing ditch bank
if you are otherwise satisfied with the performance of the cart, aside from the occasional ditch episode, you could just try adding a fan or two on the stock controller.
something like this -sj |
