Default 2005-how can I tell if it’s txt or rxv

Long story short I went to buy what I thought was a 2009 48 volt cart. I obviously didn’t investigate enough. Ends up it’s a 2005 36 volt cart. I’m wanting to replace brake shoes but I’m not sure if it’s txt or rxv. Had the pleasure of replacing all the batteries today. Turns out they weren’t as new as the guy selling it said they were. 🤦🏻*♂️

Rxv didn’t start until 2008. Also RXV only has a motor brake. RXV are 48v

Quick way to tell, TXT front roof supports attach to SIDE of front cowl. RXV front supports go down into front cowl from top.

Thanks for the quick responses. I attached a pic. Sounds like it s txt. Next question. When ordering brake shoes is there any special info I need to make sure I get the correct ones?

Check the serial number, it's on a tag in the passenger side ball holder (glove box). You can find out more about it with the number.
The brakes should be fairly standard for the year.

Look at the front axle. RXV has independent suspension and swing arms. TXT has a single bar axle that holds the tires at each end, like an old baby carriage.

An RXV is three phase, which means 3 cables to motor. There are likely other different cables with sensors, but three phase cables - unless it's got a ground?

I run my non-buggy three phase motors with three big current conductors and a different 1/0 ground, but I have a literal dedicated ground, unlike a buggy.

The txt brakes are pretty standard. I would just verify the year from the vin.
