need to upgrade motor and controller

rmitch1902 · 04-22-2015, 06:29 PM

I have a 91 ezgo marathon controller cart.

It's all stock except for a alltrax 4834 , and 20" tires.

The alltrax just burned up on me.

I got it off eBay , and never thought to check the date on it, it was out of warranty when u bought it...

The stock motor was making some noise , so i think it went out and fried the controller.

So I need a new motor and controller and solenoid.

This time I want the controller to actually be under warranty when I buy it.

I have hilly terrain here, so i was thinking about the ge beast motor.

But I'm having trouble finding someone that sells it, keep coming up with amd motors instead of ge .

I would like the 4865 controller.

I went with a 500 amp alltrax, 48 volt and a D&D 502 motor. Really nice. With the series cart go with a spm 600, d&d MOTOR AND 48 VOLT AND THAT THING WILL ROCK! Or if you are want the right advice,,,,, go Scotty b!

For this cart I like the GE 700 amp control with the 400 super solenoid for $489
The GE control is a plug and play install with identical footprint to the original. Motor wise I would use a high torque D&D 401 for $499. The right stuff at the right price

It's only 70 cents an amp!

These Series motors handle more amperage than Sepex motors. It's not really apples to apples like that

Well really you have a $75 solenoid in the package so you could say it's more like an unbelievable 59 cents an amp. Anyway you look at it - it's our lowest price ever for 700 amps.
