Default Re: Need help specifically identifying what cart I got

Not to keep killing my own post but I found more info:

http://www.vintagegolfcartparts.com/...o_serial_guide

This is the part I found more interesting.

Additional hints to identify early electric carts:

Prior to 1971 electric E-Z-GOs used solenoid switching for speed control using five solenoids. Some of the very earliest carts from the early fifties used seven solenoids, four for forward and reverse and three for speed control. From 1971 to early 1982 they used a combination of a rectangular shaped speed control board with a single solenoid mounted on top in conjunction with a group of three resistors. In late 1982 they changed the board to one with a corner cut off with the resistors attached to the trailing edge of the board. This was a one year only. In 1983 they moved the resistors to the rear. The resistors were mounted on a board with leads setting the resistors off to the side. They kept this design until 1985 when the came out with resistors mounted down the center of the board. They kept this design until 1994 when they changed over to electronic motor speed control.

If you can provide us the GE serial number from your electric motor we can tell you the year. The serial number is three letters ending in an N. From 1965 until June of 1971 E-Z-GO used a G.E. motor with a spiral cut output gear which was part of the armature. The differential had a large square flange where the motor bolted up. The opposite end of the motor had a male keyed output shaft where the single band drum brake attached. These carts had tapered keyed axles. In July of 1971 to October of 1975 they used a ten spline internal hub output shaft motor with an external shaft on the other end for the single band brake drum. These motors were either GE of Prestolite. The differential had a small square motor mounting flange from July of 1971 to May of 1975. This differential used equal length tapered keyed axles. From June of 1972 until October of 1975 the axles had ten spline hubs.

Yep, does look pre-76. You could try contacting EZGO and give them the numbers, they should be able to tell you something.

LOL, I didn't even see your post above mine until after I posted.

With that info you should be able to get it pretty well narrowed down.

One of the coolest things I think those carts have is an adjustable driver's seat back. Wonder why that never carried over into newer carts...
