1994 Medalist with a need for speed

[PostalGuy]

Hello everyone. New to the forum with an old cart that badly needs speed (motor worn out). Need advise on what to do with my 94. Its 36V stock everything. I want to leave it a 36V but upgrade on the motor, controller, wiring, etc. Don't really want to buy newer. What would be my best combo for getting 20mph (+). Primarily play on level course. I have about $2K.

400+amp Alltrax controller +/-$500
4 gauge cables -$100
EMP 2 speed golf cart motor so you can have speed AND torque. -$400 ish including shipping to and from.
H/D solenoid -$100

For a grand total of $1100

If and when you decide to upgrade to 48 volts you will be ready to rock and roll with the excetion of maybe a 48 volt solenoid. The 36 volt solenoid will work but how long is the question.

You could also swap the medalist boidy for a newer TXT body.

When I bought mine the batteries were bad and no charger so I went straight to 48, I've had a few people drive it and all like the 48v system. If I bought another one I think my first upgrade would be to 48v. I don't know my speed but it will pull strong and go fast enough for the steering and brakes. Good luck Greg
