New here, I have a 1990 I am trying to fix up. Does anyone sell a set complete? or is it best to do a custom replacement? Sorry if this has been asked before, just new, and had a 1990 gifted to me this weekend. Needs a ton of work.

Just to clarify - I also have 36V EZGO. Can someone spell out which wires to upgrade?

I believe it is the 6ga to 4ga for all the battery connections. But do I need to upgrade the wires to the motor? What else? After much searching it gets confusing to us "less than wild" guys.

I have a 1997 36v dcs I replaced my cables just the other day. I bought a 25ft roll of welding cable from my local welding supply place for $23. and I bought 20 cable ends from my local golf cart repair place that he sold to me for $1.5 each. I replaced all of the cables from the batteries,2 main(larger gauge) motor cables also I had a short cable that was connected to my controller that was larger gauge so I replaced it also.. I ended up with about 3 ft of cable left over. I don't know what model you got but thats the info on mine.. hope it helps ya.

THANK YOU!!!! I have a 2001 Series is all I know (or think I know).

So did you crimp all the cable ends? Or did you solder them? I used to have some wicked cool heat shrink solder connections but they were for like 16 ga wire.

Did you see any improvement from just cables?

I used a pair of visegrips and crimped the ends. I gained about 1.5mhp on my gps after I did that but my old cables were in pretty bad shape so I'm sure that didn't help things..

You can get the wire, lugs, double walled adhesive lined shrink wrap, and solder slugs from a place called Del City Wire. Just do a search on the internet and you can find them.
